Leaf miners of Castanopsis fissa.
wing pattern best matches but also different from Japanese speciemens
http://www.gracillariidae.net/species/show/942
Further molecular comparison needed to tell whether this is morphological variation or a new species
Three Acrocercops spp. recorded in Hong Kong, the other two are Acrocercops mantica and Acrocercops unistriata, also leaf miners of Fagacea tree, but the wing patterns are quite different
