Illustrated catalogue of Neotropical Ctenuchina, Euchromiina and Pericopina types (Lepidoptera, Erebidae, Arctiinae, Arctiini) described by Hans Zerny, with discussion on their taxonomic status
View through CrossRef
The type material of 54 names of Ctenuchina, Euchromiina and Pericopina proposed by Hans Zerny are treated. Of these, the material belonging to 43 of the 54 names, represented by 118 specimens, are deposited at the Naturhistorisches Museum Wien (NHMW). The remaining are at the BMNH, NMNH, ZMHB or the ZSM, except for one of the species, which material was not traced. Comments on each name and its current taxonomic status, illustrations of holotypes and lectotypes, as well as information about their conservation status are provided. Lectotypes are designated for 23 of the taxa, and two new synonyms are proposed Eucyane variabilis flavofasciata and E. variabilis roseofasciata (=Hypocrita variabilis variabilis). Additionally, nine names have their taxonomic status changed: Correbia columbiana stat. nov., Autochloris jordani comb. nov., Chrostosoma exomelan comb. nov., C. flavothoracides comb. nov., C. pseudothia comb. nov., C. xanthomelan comb. nov., Ecdemus imbecillus comb. nov., Pseudomya clandestina comb. nov., and Uranophora felderi, comb. nov. Illustrations of the genitalia of some of the species are also provided.
