Diptychophora kuhlweinii Zeller 1866
No full text- Diptychophora kuhlweinii Zeller, 1866 (Fig. 2). (Misspelled ‘ kuhlweini ’ by Gaskin (1986a). Described from Rio de Janeiro, the holotype could not be recovered as mentioned by Gaskin (1986a). Gaskin (1986a) mentions specimens examined from the states of Paraná, Rio de Janeiro, and Santa Catarina. We have examined additional material from Bahía (Reserva Serra Bonita) and Minas Gerais (Caraça).Published as part of Landry, Bernard & Becker, Vitor O., 2021, A taxonomic review of the genus Diptychophora Zeller (Lepidoptera, Pyralidae sensu lato, Crambinae) in Brazil, with descriptions of three new species, pp. 73-84 in Revue suisse de Zoologie 128 (1) on page 83, DOI: 10.35929/RSZ.0036, http://zenodo.org/record/477099

The holotype was not re-examined, but it is illustrated by Clarke (1958). Unfortunately, the shape and position of the uncus in Clarke’s (1958) figure of the genitalia are insufficient to see comparative details.Published as part of Razowski, Józef & Becker, Vitor O., 2016, Acailandica and Ipamerica: two new Neotropical grapholitine genera (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae), pp. 248-254 in Zootaxa 4066 (3) on page 253, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4066.3.2, http://zenodo.org/record/26377

Dichrorampha comptana: Brown, 2005, World Cat. Insects 5: 252. Diagnosis. A. comptana is most similar to A. subtilana but is easily distinguished by its entirely dark brown hindwing, and olive gray-brown head and thorax. Description. Head: Olive grey-brown. Thorax: Olive grey-brown with indistinct submedian orange fascia (absent in paratypes). Wing span 10 mm. Forewing (Fig. 11) moderately broad, weakly expanding terminad; costa weakly oblique; termen with concavity beneath apex; ground colour orange, variable, more or less pale; costal strigulae white; divisions brown; markings brown as follows: basal blotch weakly oblique to dorsum of wing separated from costa by oblique, posterior line of ground colour; several brown markings in dorsal half of wing; broad fascia from beyond concavity of termen to 2 / 3 of costa; number and shape of spots in mediotornal area variable. Cilia brownish. Hindwing dark brown. Cilia (worn) similar. Abdomen: Male unknown. Female genitalia (Fig. 5) with sterigma broad, submembranous; antrum broad posteriorly, weakly sclerotized, membranous towards long, postmedian sclerite of ductus bursae; ductus seminalis originating from broad basal part of ductus bursae; two signa. Subgenital sternite weakly sclerotized with slender posterior rib. Material examined. Three females from Pará, two from Belém, 20 m, I. 1984, V.O. Becker, Col, Col.

The specimens examined were compared by the second author with the type material of A. comptana in the BMNH. The genitalia of this species were not examined.Published as part of Razowski, Józef & Becker, Vitor O., 2016, Acailandica and Ipamerica: two new Neotropical grapholitine genera (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae), pp. 248-254 in Zootaxa 4066 (3) on pages 252-253, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4066.3.2, http://zenodo.org/record/26377

No full textAcailandica acailandiae, sp. n. Figs. 1, 7 Diagnosis. Acailandica acailandiae is related and similar to A. pyrozona (Meyrick) but differs from it chiefly in having an oblique posterior edge of the basal blotch, variegated terminal forewing markings, and a stouter aedeagus.

No full textIpamerica auctuncus, sp. n. Figs. 2, 14 Diagnosis. Ipamerica auctuncus is the only representative of the genus; it is most similar to Ricula trechalea Razowski & Becker, 2012 from Pará, Brazil, from which it differs by having a distinct incision of the termen beneath the apex of the forewing and in the reduction of the terminal row of spots. Description. Head: Cream brown. Thorax: Cream brown, sprinkled whitish. Wing span 10.5 mm. Forewing (Fig. 14) cream sprinkled and suffused with pale brown; costal strigulae whitish; divisions brown; leaden grey lines from costa and subterminal area; dorsal patch indistinct accompanied by several similar lines chiefly towards wing base; distinct black spots in ocellus. Cilia pale brownish, basal line brown. Hindwing brownish. Cilia paler. Abdomen: Male genitalia (Fig. 2) as described for the genus. Female unknown. Distribution and biology. Known from the states of Goias and Distrito Federal, Brazil. Holotype male: " Brasilia: GO[ias], Ipameri, 10.X. 1988, V.O. Becker, Col; Col. Becker 59710 "; GS 770 WZ.
