Scythropiodes Matsumura, 1931: 1099 . Type species: Scythropiodes seriatopunctata Matsumura, 1931 = Protobathra leucostola Meyrick, 1921 .
Generic characters. Adult ( Figs 1–2 View FIGURE 1 View FIGURE 2 ). Head with appressed scales on frons, with raised scales on vertex ( Fig. 1 View FIGURE 1 a); compound eye developed, almost as wide as frons ( Fig. 1 View FIGURE 1 b). Antenna ( Fig. 1 View FIGURE 1 c) filiform, with short cilia ventrally in males of some species, about three-fourths length of forewing. Labial palpus upturned, third palpomere as long as or slightly shorter than second, acute terminally ( Fig. 1 View FIGURE 1 d). Thorax with tergum slightly raised. Forewing ( Fig. 2 View FIGURE 2 ) subrectangular, R4 and R5 stalked basally, R5 to termen, M1 parallel with M2, M2 and M3 proximate at base, basal fork 1/3–1/2 length of 1A+2A. Hindwing ( Fig. 2 View FIGURE 2 ) subtrapezoidal, Rs and M1 stalked basally, M2 parallel with M3, M3 connate or coincident with CuA1 basally.
Male genitalia ( Fig. 3 View FIGURE 3 a). Tegumen subrectangular. Uncus absent. Gnathos hooked. Valva variable in shape. Transtilla and juxta often with lateral lobes.
Female genitalia ( Fig. 3 View FIGURE 3 b). Papillae anales elongate rectangular. Apophysis posteriores about two to three times length of apophysis anteriores. Ostium bursae situated between seventh and eighth sterna. Corpus bursae membranous; signum usually present.
Diagnosis. Scythropiodes is similar to Odites , but can be separated from it by the well-developed, hooked gnathos in the male genitalia. In Odites , the gnathos is reduced or absent.
