Revision of the genus Hoplosauris Butler 1882 (Lepidoptera: Geometridae)

摘要

The genus Hoplosauris Butler 1882 is reviewed and redefined. Species belonging to the genera Notholoba syn. nov. and Physoloba Warren (1908) are incorporated into Hoplosauris, and the species Physoloba griseofasciata is maintained Physoloba as its type species. The following eight species are recognized in Hoplosauris: H. heliconoides Butler, 1882; H. schausi (Warren 1908) comb, nov.; H. valeria Butler 1893; H. indistincta (Butler, 1882) comb, nov.; H. macarenae Parra sp. nov.; H. granitata (Fletcher1953) comb, nov.; H. pachrophylloid.es Parra sp. nov.; H. mabillei Parra sp. nov. Synapomorphic characters supporting monophyly of Hoplosauris include vesicle of anal margin of the male hindwings small, corpus bursae striated, internal surface of corpusbursae with microspines, and valvae with androconia subapically. Adult wing patterns and genitalia are illustrated, and geographic distributions discussed.
