NIPPOPTILIA REGULUS (MEYRICK) View in CoL COMB. NOV.
Oxyptilus regulus Meyrick, 1906: 135 View in CoL .
Material examined: No specimen was available for study.
Comments: This new combination is proposed based on the study of the original description and illustrations. The shape of the male genitalia in this species is similar to the members of Nippoptilia , especially Nippoptilia issikii . Moreover these two species are fairly close to each other in the wing pattern and characteristics, and the host plants of both species belong to the genus Vittis.
