This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Park, Jinhyeong, Yagi, Sadahisa, Hirowatari, Toshiya (2025): First record of the genus Morophaga Herrich-Schäffer (Lepidoptera, Tineidae) from the Ogasawara Islands, Japan, with a new species.

Description

Nota Lepidopterologica 48: 215-228, DOI: 10.3897/nl.48.143817 Abstract. The present study records Morophaga formosana Robinson, 1986 and describes M. hahajimana sp. nov. from the Ogasawara Islands of Japan.

This is the first record of this genus Morophaga Herrich-Schäffer, 1853 (Tineidae) from the Oceanian region. Photographs of adult specimens, wing veins, genitalia, and larval biology are presented. We have constructed a preliminary phylogenetic tree based on cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI- 5 P) DNA barcode sequences, including those of some Scardiinae species.
