Same locality and collector as holotype, 4 males, 3 females (ANIC). E Bali Gilimanuk 12.vi.1972, I. Polunin male (ANIC).</p><p><b>Diagnosis</b>. One of three <i>Pteroptyx</i> species where males are without deflexed elytral apices and with an entire LO in V7; dorsally pale coloured; MFC with 4 strong teeth; PLP short and rounded and shorter than apically rounded MPP; LO in V7 not extending into MPP or PLP; female bursa with paired elongate plates which may be fused or not (difficulty in interpretation). Ballantyne & Lambkin (2013) scored this as ‘Pt sp MFC’ in their Figure 3.</p><p><b>Male</b>. Colour (Figs. 101 ̄103): pale yellowish brown with dark tipped elytral apices; with paler white LOs in V6, 7 and dark brown head, antennae and tarsi; elytra appearing pale brown at base and narrowly along basal half of lateral margin; underlying hind wing may give impression that elytra are darker (wing should be pulled to side for examination Fig. 103). Pronotum: subparallel-sided (B=C); all corners rounded obtuse. Elytron: apex not deflexed; apex of elytron not emarginate. Head: greatly exposed in front of pronotum; apical labial palpomere laterally compressed, longer than wide, with inner margin entire and less than half length of apical maxillary palpomere. Antennae: FS 1 longer than pedicel; no FS laterally produced. Legs (Figs. 102, 108): MFC with four strong teeth; no basitarsus emarginated. Abdomen (Figs. 102, 104, 105): posterior margin of V4 sometimes recurved; LO in V7 entire reaching sides, and into anterior portion of MPP; PLP short apically rounded, shorter than apically rounded MPP. T8 (Fig. 105): without flanges; posterior margin trisinuate with median emargination short and narrow. Aedeagus (Figs. 110 ̄112): approximately 4 X as long as wide; LL separated by half their length, narrowed and obliquely inclined at their apices, with anterior margin rounded; b/a 0.8.</p><p><b>Female.</b> (Figs. 106, 107; associated by label data only). Coloured as for male except for pale LO in V6 only. Bursa plates (Fig. 107) appearing as two broad elongate plates on each side; anterior plates curved; posterior plates inclined transversely to anterior plates and subtriangular in outline, may be attached to anterior plates but interpretation is unclear; posterior plates approach very closely at their inner margins and may be joined there also.</p><p><b>Etymology</b>.
