Alexanlr ! For me, too, let it stand in the family. This is just one of those cases when you can't do without a specialist who clearly at least assured you that this is so-and-so.. You probably shouldn't rely on the Internet. Here in the Internet infa caught that O. koreana and O. ussurica are the same thing.But if you carefully look at the pictures, then somehow doubts appear., perhaps due to not knowing, for example, biology.

Already tried to figure it out after the discussion here https://insecta.pro/gallery/46350, but no response yet(

Yuri, I'll put him in the genus for now, maybe someone will still speak out about the species, otherwise we act on the principle: similar - not similar. :) We don't know how the types differ.

Alexander ! From what I looked at, I decided on this option. O. koreana has a slightly different wing shape, especially in the apex. The tails on the hind wings are narrower and longer, the fringe color is slightly different, etc. It is more similar to the other variant of O. ussurica Inoue 1993. But the site doesn't list it in region 37.. In general, I am in favor of the variant of Ourapteryx maculicaudaria (Motschulsky, 1866).

Why not Ourapteryx koreana? How do these two types differ from each other?

I will say that this is Ourapteryx maculicaudaria (Motschulsky, 1866) .
