Risoba
walshae
sp. n.
18mm, putative 
20mm. See repugnans for a general description. The male forewing facies
has a conspicuous dark discal spot (obscure in repugnans), but the
submarginal is less strongly delineated with darker green on its basal side. The
female has the apical brown patch larger, particularly basal to the arcuate
division. The male genitalia have the aedeagus vesica larger and strongly
asymmetrical with about ten basal cornuti and one central one. The valve is
similar to that of repugnans but the costal spine extends in a
distinctive flange basad from its base, and the more distal ventral process is a
very small lobe.
