diagnosis
Diagnosis. Orybina is superficially similar to Trebania Ragonot, 1891 in the labial palpus with the second and third segments triangular or rostriform. However, Orybina can be distinguished from Trebania by having the forewing with a conspicuous spot placed at or below costa on the inner margin of the postmedial line (absent in Trebania), the triangular or tongue-shaped uncus (oval in Trebania), and the sturdy phallus without cornutus in male genitalia (slim and having cornutus in Trebania).
