    Catocala mira syn. dana Cassino, syn. n. Catocala mira var. dana Cassino, 1918a: 54 Catocala mira ssp. dana; McDunnough 1938: 118 Catocala mira ssp. dana; Franclemont and Todd 1983: 129 Type material. Catocala mira var. dana: the original description states a “ Holotype ♁ in the collection of the author.” Th ere is a female at the USNM [Type No. 44533, examined] with a Cassino type label and appropriate locality data, and because Cassino often missexed his material, we consider this female to be his holotype. The name dana has in the past been treated as a subspecies of C. mira Grote, 1876, probably based on small sample sizes and limited knowledge of geographic variation in this species. We have examined large numbers of C. mira from throughout North America, and find the name dana to be neither distinctive nor geographically definable. Type Locality: Springfield, Texas, [USA].Published as part of Gall, Lawrence & Hawks, David, 2010, Systematics of moths in the genus Catocala (Lepidoptera, Erebidae) IV.

Catocala miranda: the original description states “ Washington, D. C. Type. Coll. Hy. Edwards.” A male type is at the AMNH, and is designated as lectotype to clarify application of the name miranda.

    Catocala blandula Hulst Fig. 5 (lectotype) Catocala blandula Hulst, 1884: 38 Catocala blandula; Barnes and McDunnough 1918: 41 Catocala blandula; McDunnough 1938: 118 Catocala blandula; Franclemont and Todd 1983: 129 Type material. Catocala blandula: the original description does not state the number of types. A male and female type are at the AMNH, and the male is designated as lectotype to clarify application of the name blandula. Th e lectotype bears the labels “♁”, “Vt.”, “Collection / GDHulst”, “ Catocala / blandula / Type Hulst.” Type Locality: hereby restricted to V [ermon]t, [USA] on the basis of the lectotype label.Published as part of Gall, Lawrence & Hawks, David, 2010, Systematics of moths in the genus Catocala (Lepidoptera, Erebidae) IV.

    Catocala consors syn. sorsconi Barnes & Benjamin, syn. n. Catocala consors race sorsconi Barnes & Benjamin, 1924: 174 Catocala consors ssp. sorsconi; McDunnough 1938: 115 Catocala consors ssp. sorsconi; Franclemont and Todd 1983: 128 Type material. Catocala sorsconi: holotype ♁ [USNM, examined]. Although Barnes and Benjamin discussed wing pattern characters supposedly differentiating C. c. consors (J. E. Smith, 1797) from their northern subspecies C. s. sorsconi (which they had named “mainly to correct… [Reiff’s] error [in naming pensacola]”), these characters vary widely in large series of specimens from Texas through Florida. Because the variation is geographically inconsistent, we see little merit in retaining the name sorsconi.

Catocala minerva: holotype ♁ [USNM, examined]. Th e name minerva has been treated for many years as a subspecies of C. briseis Edwards, 1864, but C. minerva is a lighter color form of C. briseis that occurs regularly throughout much of the western geographic range of the species.

Catocala elizabeth: holotype ♀ [USNM, examined]. Th e name elizabeth has been treated since McDunnough (1938) as a subspecies of C. californica Edwards, 1864. However, the type of C. elizabeth falls within the normal range of geographic variation of C. californica.

Catocala nuptula: the original description states “a,b. North America.

Catocala maestosa: the name maestosa was proposed as a replacement name for C. viduata Guenée, 1852, which was based on a misidentification of Phalaena vidua J. E. Smith 1797. Two of Hulst’s types are at the AMNH, and a male is designated lectotype to clarify application of the name maestosa.

Catocala denussa: the holotype male [CMNH, examined] is a melanic aberrant of C. habilis Grote, 1872 as originally suggested by Ehrman and Beutenmüller (1913). The name was incorrectly placed as a synonym of C. palaeogama Guenée, 1852 in McDunnough (1938).
