Glyphodes harutai Yamanaka, 1998. Pyralidae of Nepal (II). In: Moths of Nepal Part 5, TINEA. Pg. 108, pl. 142/15.
Expanse 21-23mm. Very similar to G. duplicalis Inoue, Munroe & Mutuura, 1981, Tinea 11: 91, figs 1-2, 5, 7, described from Japan in colour and maculation, but ground colour of upperside of both wings more or less strongly tinged with buff; orbicular spot a little smaller; subterminal and terminal band of hindwing a little narrower.
Male & female genitalia (Figs 892, 895). Very similar to G. pyloalis Walker, 1859 described from north China rather than to G. duplicalis, but different from those of the former as follows. In male apico-dorsal portion of the uncus more weakly dilated (Fig. 893). In female collar of ductus bursae a little shorter and more or less strongly sclerotized.
