Abstract Lithosiini genera of the Asura / Miltochrista generic complex related to Barsine Walker, 1854 sensu lato and Asura Walker, 1854 are overviewed. Barsine is considered to be a group having such an autapomorphic feature as a basal saccular process of valva only. Many species without this process are separated to the diverse and species-rich genus Ammatho stat. nov., which is subdivided here into eight subgenera including Idopterum Hampson, 1894 downgraded here to a subgenus level, and six new subgenera: Ammathella Volynkin, subgen. nov., Composine Volynkin, subgen. nov., Striatella Volynkin & Huang, subgen. nov., Conicornuta Volynkin, subgen. nov., Delineatia Volynkin & Huang, subgen. nov. and Rugosine Volynkin, subgen. nov. A number of groups of species considered previously by various authors as members of Barsine are erected here to 20 new genera and four subgenera: Ovipennis (Barsipennis) Volynkin, subgen. nov., Ovipennis (Coccinigripennis) Volynkin & Huang, subgen. nov., Barsura (Tenebrasura) Volynkin, subgen. nov., Argentosine Volynkin, gen. nov., Esmasura Volynkin & Huang, gen. nov., Matsumursine Volynkin & Huang, gen. nov., Floridasura Volynkin, gen. nov., Fossia Volynkin, Ivanova & Huang, gen. nov., Wittasura Volynkin, gen. nov., Disparsine Volynkin, gen. nov., Moorasura Volynkin & Huang, gen. nov., Sarbine Volynkin, gen. nov., Sarbine (Processine) Volynkin, subgen. nov., Hampsonascia Volynkin, gen. nov., Cernysura Volynkin, gen. nov., Barsilene Volynkin & Huang, gen. nov., Nanarsine Volynkin, gen. nov., Amphisine Volynkin, gen. nov., Karolia Volynkin, gen. nov., Niveutane Volynkin, gen. nov., Rubrindiania Volynkin & Huang, gen. nov., Barsaurea Volynkin & Huang, gen. nov., Integrivalvia Volynkin & Huang, gen. nov. and Aberrasine Volynkin & Huang, gen. nov. The genus Nebulene Volynkin & Černý is downgraded to a subspecies of Ovipennis. The genus Eutane Walker, 1854 is downgraded to a subspecies of Asura. The genera Miltasura Roepke, 1946 and Gymnasura Hampson, 1900 are synonymised here with Cyme Felder, 1861 and Asura respectively. The genera Asuropsis Matsumura, 1927, Neasuroides Matsumura, 1927 and Asuridoides Daniel, 1951 are synonymised with Miltochrista Hübner, [1819]. The genus Allochrista Roepke, 1946 is synonymised with the subgenus Thyrgorina Walker, [1865] of the genus Lemyra Walker, 1856 (tribe Arctiini) with establishing a new combination Lemyra (Thyrgorina) toxopei (Roepke, 1946), comb. nov. Other six new synonyms are established: Barsine pardalis (Mell, 1922) = Barsine miranda Kishida & Wang, 2017, syn. nov., Barsine striata striata (Bremer & Grey, 1852) = Miltochrista quelparta Okamota, 1924, syn. nov., Floridasura tricolor (Wileman, 1910) = Barsine coccinea Moore, 1886, syn. nov., Disasuridia metaphaea (Hampson, 1900) = Disasuridia flava Fang, 1991, syn. nov., Aberrasine aberrans aberrans (Butler, 1877) = Miltochrista decussata (Moore, 1877), syn. nov. and Cabarda nigripuncta (Wileman & South, 1919) = Asura lunilinea Schaus, 1922, syn. nov. In addition, it is stated that Miltochrista quadrifasciata Rothschild, 1913 described from New Guinea and currently belonging to the genus Cyme (a junior synonym of Cyme sexualis (Felder, 1864)) is an invalid name, being a secondary junior homonym (homonym nov.) of Cyme quadrifasciata (Rothschild, 1913), comb. nov. described from Sulawesi. A full check-list of members of the Asura / Miltochrista generic complex with 370 new combinations is present. References Bayarsaikhan, U., Im, K.H., Bae, Y.S. & Volynkin, A.V.
