Remarks.

Li and Ren (2008) reported this species in Henan; however, the genitalia are quite different from those of Lista haraldusalis (Walker, 1859) provided by Marumo (1942). Meanwhile, their figure of the adult matches the original figure of Lista insulsalis (Lederer, 1863). Thus, their description actually refers to Lista insulsalis (Lederer, 1863) rather than Lista haraldusalis (Walker, 1859). In addition, the species was wrongly recognized as Lista ficki by Yamanaka (2000). We correct their identification here.
