Males have largely black forewings with just a hint of a white postmedian band, often just a couple of dots; this band tends to be more pronounced in Vadina hodeei kruegeri (Figs. 10D, E) than in the nominotypical subspecies (Figs. 10A–C). The hindwing is black with a small red patch at the anal angle, alongside this patch are a couple of small white patches in ssp. hodeei and a much larger white spot in ssp. kruegeri. Females have a black forewing with a postmedian white band which is only hinted at in the male, this band is narrow in ssp. kruegeri, but much wider in ssp. hodeei. The female hindwing, like that of the male, is black with a small red patch at the anal angle, however, alongside this patch is a white band that continues nearly up to the costa; this is quite wide in ssp. hodeei but much narrower in ssp. kruegeri. There are a series of five red extradiscal spots on the hindwing with just a hint of extradiscal spots on the forewing, although one specimen of ssp. kruegeri we have seen has eight very distinct red spots on the forewing.</p> <p>The ventral surface of the V. hodeei female is dark brown, and the pattern mirrors the dorsal surface, although the bands on all four wings are wider. In the male, the forewing is dark brown, and the pattern mirrors the dorsal surface with the addition of a row of extradiscal orange spots, strong in ssp. hodeei but fading away in ssp. kruegeri (fig. 12E). The hindwing lacks the white markings of the dorsal surface and there is a strong postmedian row of orange spots with a weaker extradiscal row; like the female, these are much stronger in ssp. hodeei than in ssp. kruegeri.</p> <p>Focusing on wing colouration alone, sexual dimorphism is evident in Amauta, Telchin and Vadina, but not so well expressed in Divana. Wing morphology and venation also help discern similarities and differences among the four genera, thus separating them. Vadina, Divana and Telchin are medium-sized moths, but they are smaller (~60–65%) than Amauta. Forewings of Amauta are almost 1/3 larger than Vadina, Divana, and Telchin (Forewing length: Vadina, Divana and Telchin: 60–80 mm; Amauta: 100–140 mm). Forewings of Vadina (Fig. 2B) are noticeably curved along the costa and at the apex of the outer margin, while they are only slightly curved along the costa and near the apex of the outer margin in Telchin (Fig. 2D). The costal margin of Divana (Fig. 2C) is slightly curved, as is the outer margin, similar to Vadina. The forewings in Amauta are broad and only slightly rounded along the distal third of the forewing costa, the outer margin is almost straight (Fig. 2A). Whilst a lobe is present in the anal margin of all four genera, it is certainly more pronounced in Vadina, than in the other three, especially in the area in front of the union of 1A with 2A (Figs. 2A–D). A radial accessory cell is present in Amauta, Vadina and Divana, but not in Telchin; the discal cell is closed in Amauta, Vadina and Telchin, but not completely in Divana (Figs. 2A–D).</p> <p>Males of Vadina, possess a moderately sclerotised genital capsule, while in Telchin and Amauta it ranges between moderately and heavily sclerotised. Vadina possesses the uncus and anterior section of gnathos apophysis slightly sclerotised, more so than the tegumen. Uncus short, divided, with arms laterad and barely developed socii; all lightly sclerotised, almost membranous distad, and gnathos moderately sclerotised in Divana. Uncus in Amauta has a bulbous protuberance and uncus is fused with the socii in Telchin, features that are not present in Vadina and Divana. Uncus is slightly sclerotised in Telchin, with an inflection in the lateral margins, such an inflection is barely noticeable in Vadina, whilst in Amauta, the uncus curves (Figs. 4A–H, 5E–F). Gnathos in Vadina is bifid anteriad and lightly sclerotised, but in Telchin, besides being bifid, it is heavily sclerotised with its dorsal arm prominent, and the ventral one reduced; in Amauta it is also bifid anteriad, but lightly sclerotised. Ventral margin of valva slightly concave in Vadina, while in Telchin is tenuously excavated and in Amauta is predominantly lobate with sacculus emarginate and recurved setiferous lobe ventrad (Figs. 4A–H, 5E–F).</p> <p>Phallus slightly sclerotised and slightly to moderately curved distally, having a distal section slightly larger than the coecum, with the terminal portion of shaft wider than the rest of the phallus and not contorted (Figs. 4G–H). Telchin has heavily sclerotised, strong, contorted distal section of phallus, which is double the size of the coecum. Tip of the phallus highly ornamented with several membranous intersections (Figs. 5E–F). In the case of Amauta, the phallus is deeply curved, with most species having a slightly hardened ejaculatory bulb (Figs. 4A, C–F). Divana with phallus moderately sclerotised, with distal section about ¾ the length of the coecum (Figs. 5A–D). Phallus is slightly contorted, sinuated, ending in a somewhat bifurcate plate at the tip, with a membranous dextral view and vesica everted bearing minute cornuti. The tip of the phallus of Divana is slightly ornamented, not as much as Telchin, but more than what can be seen in Vadina (Figs. 4G–H, 5A–F).</p> <p>Etymology: The name Vadina is an anagram of Divana, continuing the tradition started by Oiticica (1955) of using anagrams of existing genera for new ones.</p> <p>Remarks: Vadina hodeei appears to have a vestigial male retinaculum but it is very small and probably nonfunctional, unlike any other genus in the family (Fig. 1A), the male retinaculum and genitalia together with the wing venation make it possibly closer to Divana (in which the subcostal retinaculum is absent) than to Amauta or Telchin. However, the wing venation (Fig. 2B) and particularly the male genitalia (Figs. 4G, H &amp; male genitalia below) in V. hodeei are very different from either of these genera.</p> </div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03E76362FFE7102714C77DCFFD4BFFE6	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

E. Peru, 1,200 ft., February– March 1912, (H. and C. Watkins) (figs. 9F, G); 1♂ <a href="https://tb.plazi.org/GgServer/search?materialsCitation.longitude=-3.25&amp;materialsCitation.latitude=2.6" title="Search Plazi for locations around (long -3.25/lat 2.6)">Pozuzo</a>, Huánuco [now in Pasco department (Gerardo Lamas pers. comm.)], 800– 1,000 m. = 2,600 –3,250 ft. (W. Hoffmanns); 2♀♀ Chanchamayo, Peru; 1♂ Songo, Bolivia (Garlepp) (fig. 9E). At the time of description all syntypes were in the collection of Lionel Walter Rothschild (1868–1937), they are now in NHMUK.</p> <p>Lectotype designation: After examining the syntypes it appears that two different subspecies are represented in the syntypic series. Only the specimens from Bolivia and Yahuarmayo, which is in Puno department, south-east Peru, appear to be different, the rest are referable to ssp. papilionaris (= velutina). The male syntype from Songo, Bolivia collected by Otto (1864–1959) and Gustav Garlepp (1862–1907) (fig. 9E) best shows the differentiating features of this subspecies and is hereby designated as lectotype to fix it as the sole name-bearing type of Castnia (Amauta) papilionaris affinis Rothschild, 1919, hereafter Amauta papilionaris lionela Lamas, 1995. All other syntypes become paralectotypes.</p> <p>Type locality: This is now fixed by the lectotype designation as Songo, Bolivia. This refers to the Rio Zongo in La Paz department, Bolivia. It is not possible to pinpoint the locality any more precisely.</p> <p>Taxonomic status: The name is a junior primary homonym of Castnia affinis Houlbert, 1917 and was replaced by Amauta papilionaris lionela Lamas, 1995, which is now the valid name for the taxon. It is here considered to be a weakly defined subspecies of A. papilionaris (Walker, [1865]), closest to the Central American populations known as ssp. amethystina, the two possibly forming a so-called polytopic subspecies (cf. Mayr 1963, 1969; Zilli 1996).</p> <p>Male genitalia: (Fig. 4F) Uncus is simple, having a wide and round but almost pointed apex. Gnathos slightly sclerotised, bifid anteriad. Cucullus and valvula almost quadrate, and slightly rounded apically. Valva short and wide. Ventral margin of valva sharply cut. Sacculus projected and continues with the arms of the saccus. Phallus curved with distal section three times the length of coecum, narrowed beyond their junction, becoming straight after, with subterminal portion enlarged. Aedeagus contortion is incomplete. Apex of phallus with a terminal, sclerotised section. Vesica opens sinistrally and proximad to sclerotised end of phallus.</p> <p>Distribution: This subspecies seems to be restricted to Bolivia, recorded from La Paz and Cochabamba departments, and south-eastern Peru, currently only confirmed from Puno and Cuzco departments (Fig. 14).</p> <p>Discussion: Rothschild (1919) originally described the subspecies by stating: “This form is nearest to velutina, but the ♀♀ have the bands almost as broad as in Westwood’s figure of papilionaris papilionaris ”. Unfortunately, Westwood’s (1877) figure (Fig. 8C) is highly stylised and in terms of the width of the postmedian bands bears little resemblance to the holotype of papilionaris papilionaris (Fig. 8D). Having studied the type series of affinis, the width of the forewing pale yellow band appears to be widest in the Bolivian specimens and marginally less wide in specimens from Puno, Peru. A large series from Huánuco, Peru (Figs. 9C, D) appears to be identical to specimens from Ecuador, which have traditionally been assigned to ssp. velutina (now synonymised with p. papilionaris, see below). The paralectotypes from Chanchamayo, which is in Junín, Peru, are similar to Huánuco specimens, but some specimens show a slight broadening of the bands, which could suggest a cline. The hindwing blue band is of variable width in all populations, but it does seem to be narrower in the most southerly representatives of affinis. We therefore reserve the name lionela for specimens of A. papilionaris from Bolivia and southern Peru. The phenotype is in fact analogous to the northernmost subspecies of papilionaris – amethystina. Specimens examined from San Martín, Huánuco and Junín departments in Peru are referable to ssp. papilionaris, those from Puno and Cuzco to ssp. lionela. We have not seen specimens from other departments in southern Peru so cannot comment on these.</p> <p>Material examined: 12 males and 1 female were examined for this study. As well as the former syntypes, the following specimens were examined: BOLIVIA: 1♂ Songo, (Garlepp) (NMHUK); 1♂ Rurrenabaque, XII- 2001 (DC); 1♂ Rio Palmar, Cochabamba, 1100 m (MZ). PERU: 1♂ Peru (MGCL); 1♂ Yahuarmayo, S. E. Peru, 1,200 ft., February–March 1912, (H. and C. Watkins) (NMHUK); 1♂ Chontachaca, Rio Pilcopata, Cuzco, 850m, IV-1996 (MB); 1♂ Chontachaca, Rio Pilcopata, Cuzco, XI -2016; 1♂ Rio Marcapata, Cuzco, XII-2016 (RW). As noted above, for comparison, we also examined a large series of A. p. papilionaris from Huánuco, Peru, and 4 males and 6 females from Chanchamayo, including the paralectotypes of affinis from these localities which we do not consider correspond to the concept of the taxon as restricted herein.</p> </div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03E76362FFED103314C77DCDFC6DF986	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

This specimen is the holotype by monotypy; at the time of description, it was in the collection of Charles Oberthür (1845–1924), it is now in NHMUK.</p> <p>Type locality: The locality label reads: Hacienda Macháy, Paroisse Baños, Canton Pillaro, Province Ambato, Vallée du Pastaza, Ecuador (J Stolzmann).</p> <p>Taxonomic status: Originally described as a species and treated as such by Miller (1995) and Lamas (1995), this nominal taxon is here synonymised with Castnia papilionaris Walker, [1865] (syn. nov.), so it is a junior subjective synonym of that taxon (now in Amauta).</p> <p>Distribution: Not relevant.</p> <p>Discussion: In his original description Houlbert (1917) states that the “species” is characterised by the width and shape of the blue and yellow postmedian bands on the wings. He mentions that the forewing yellow band is narrower than that of amethystina, but this character applies equally to papilionaris, of which this taxon is a synonym. The main difference that he picks out is that the hindwing blue band is the same width throughout its length, and is not dilated in the middle, as in papilionaris and amethystina. Houlbert had access to very few specimens of A. papilionaris and none of the nominotypical subspecies, he only knew Westwood’s (1877) stylised figure (fig. 8C); he was also inclined to be a splitter, describing new species from the smallest differentiation in the features of a single specimen. The type of ambatensis is easily lost in the long series of papilionaris from Ecuador in NHMUK and the size and shape of the hindwing blue band falls within the variation of the feature in this taxon, therefore we can see no reason to maintain the name ambatensis as anything more than a synonym of the nominotypical subspecies.</p> <p>Material examined: The holotype was examined for this study.</p></div> 	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03E76362FFF0103614C77DE3FC39FB66	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Houlbert, 1917, 1918), which is the holotype by monotypy (Fig. 8A). At the time of description, it was in the collection of Charles Oberthür (1845–1924), it is now in NHMUK.</p> <p>Type locality: Panama. No more information is available from either Houlbert’s writings or the specimen labels.</p> <p>Taxonomic status: A weakly defined subspecies of Amauta papilionaris (Walker, [1865]) closest to the south Peruvian-Bolivian populations known as ssp. lionela, the two possibly forming a so-called polytopic subspecies (cf. Mayr 1963, 1969; Zilli 1996). Originally described as a species but sunk to a subspecies of A. papilionaris by Miller (1995).</p> <p>Male genitalia: Uncus simple with wide and almost rounded apex. Gnathos sclerotised, bifid anteriad; tip level with or slightly exceeding uncus. Cucullus and valvula slightly rounded apically. Valvae are distinct, short, and wide. Ventral margin of valvae sharply cut. Sacculus projected and continues with the arms of the saccus. Anterior projection of saccus quite long. Vinculum semi-circular, small, crescent-shaped. Phallus curved, with distal section about three times the length of coecum, narrowed beyond junction with coecum, then slightly curved, with subterminal portion enlarged, rounded, and slightly contorted. Apex of phallus with a terminal, sclerotised section. The vesica opens to the left near end of the phallus.</p> <p>Distribution: Specimens are only known from Panama and Costa Rica (Limón province). Specimens from Colombia and Venezuela appear to be Amauta p. papilionaris (see papilionaris below) (Fig. 14).</p> <p>Discussion: Houlbert (1917) picks out the darker ground colour and the much smaller forewing white discal spot as the main differentiating features for this subspecies. His conclusion is hardly surprising as he was comparing the type with Westwood’s (1877) stylised figure of papilionaris (Fig. 8C). The actual holotype of A. papilionaris (Fig. 8D) (and all other specimens examined) have a much darker ground colour than Westwood’s figure, the same as in amethystina, and the discal spot is variable in size, many being the same size as in amethystina. Westwood’s figure exaggerates the width of the forewing pale yellow postmedian band and the size of the discal spot. The holotype of amethystina has a much broader forewing band than papilionaris and is in fact analogous to the southernmost subspecies of papilionaris – lionela. The hindwing blue postmedian band is of variable width in all populations but there is a suggestion that it is slightly narrower in amethystina. We have recently found a second specimen of amethystina from Costa Rica in CAS (Fig. 8B), which is in good agreement with the general appearance of the holotype. The differences in these two specimens compared with nominotypical papilionaris are considered to be enough to provisionally accept the subspecific separation of amethystina. More specimens are needed to confirm this.</p> <p>Rothschild (1919) stated that amethystina differs from papilionaris papilionaris by its small size and narrow blue postmedian band on the hindwings. However, as previously mentioned these are variable features and can also be found in many specimens of p. papilionaris. Rothschild also stated that he had one male of amethystina from Merida, Venezuela collected by Salomón Briceño (1826–1912); this specimen is now in NHMUK and appears not to be any different from A. p. papilionaris.</p> <p>Apolinar María (1945) figures a specimen (in colour) that he calls Amauta amethystina Hlb. possibly the first time that specific epithet is used in the Colombian lepidopterological literature. This same specimen is mentioned from years prior “…we received a beautiful specimen of Castnia papilionaris Wkr. from…, El Baldío. [… a town of recent foundation in the Eastern Cordillera of Bogotá] … the moth appears darker than the one [of papilionaris in Strand] …. Another very notable difference is the complete absence, in the insect that is in our collection, of the yellow discal spot that appears in the forewing of typical specimens.” (Apolinar María 1915). The illustrated specimen seems to be A. p. papilionaris.</p> <p>Material examined: In addition to the holotype, 1♂ Limón, Provincia de Limón, Costa Rica, Nicholas Zakharoff (CAS), was examined for this study.

Druce 1907)	<div><p>angusta (H. Druce, 1907)</p> <p>(Fig. 7C)</p> <p>“ Castnia angusta, sp. n. ” H. Druce, 1907, The Annals and Magazine of natural History (7) 20 (120): 505.</p> <p>Type material: All the information is compatible with Druce (1907) having described this taxon from a single male in his collection, this would therefore be the holotype by [likely] monotypy (fig. 7C). The specimen passed from Druce to James John Joicey (1870–1932), and it is now in NHMUK; examination shows it to be a female and not a male as Druce surmised.</p> <p>Type locality: Given by Herbert Druce (1846–1913) as “ Ecuador, Los Lanos” (sic), although on the specimen label it is spelt “Los Lanos”. Los Lanos is in Chimborazo province in southern Ecuador.</p> <p>Taxonomic status: A valid species of Amauta. It was originally described as a species by Druce (1907) and treated as such by Miller (1995), but then sunk to a subspecies of A. cacica by Lamas (1995). It is herein restored to a valid species, stat. rest.</p> <p>Male genitalia: (Fig. 4C) Uncus simple, almost quadrate but not quite; moderately sclerotised, as is the tegumen. Gnathos strongly sclerotised, bifid anteriad and excavate and dentate posteriad. Cucullus and valvula almost quadrate, with ventral margin of valva somewhat oblique and with sacculus projected. Phallus moderately curved, not contorted, its distal section slightly more than twice the length of the coecum and tapered, wider at the connection with coecum, and half its width by the middle section. Then, the phallus shows a somewhat abrupt enlargement, as sclerotised as the rest of the structure. From there it becomes thin towards the apex. Subterminal portion of phallus not enlarged, and terminal one with a small projection. Phallus completely different from that of A. cacica.</p> <p>Distribution: This species appears to be found throughout Ecuador and northward into the western Cordillera in Colombia (Fig. 13), although we have some doubts if localities from eastern Ecuador are really reliable.</p> <p>Discussion: We have long thought that this taxon was probably not conspecific with Amauta cacica as it is the only taxon in the group in which the postmedian bands on both fore- and hindwings are the same colour, and the hindwing band is much narrower than any of the other related taxa. Most recent studies have treated it as a subspecies of A. cacica but a dissection of the male genitalia shows that it is clearly a separate species. The distribution seems to be similar to that of Vadina hodeei kruegeri and Divana diva hoppi.</p> <p>Material examined: For this study, as well as the types of angusta and oberthueri, we have examined an additional 40 males and 29 females from various parts of Ecuador and 7 males and 2 females from Colombia as follows: 1♂ Colombia (MGCL); 1♂ Rio Dagua, W Rosenberg; 1♂ Rio Magdalena, (NHMUK); 1♂ Putumayo: Sibundoy a 2100 m, hembra, 18-XI-2008, F.

[30], fig. 143 [1854]; 56, 79 [1858].</p> <p>Type material: Boisduval ([1875]) states that he lent his material of Castniidae to Gottlieb August Wilhelm HerrichSchäffer (1799–1874) and it was on that material that most of Herrich-Schäffer’s list of 1854 was based. At the time there were two females of Amauta cacica in Jean Baptiste Boisduval’s (1799–1879) collection (Houlbert 1918), so these specimens are syntypes; both of these syntypes passed via Oberthür to NHMUK. The specimen illustrated on pl. [30], fig. 143 could be regarded as the holotype by monotypy, but as it was a stylised painting there is no way to tell which of the two syntypes it was. The Code also allows for any evidence, published or unpublished, to be taken into account to determine what specimens constitute the type series (Art. 72.4.1.1). We know from Boisduval ([1875]) that he lent his material to Herrich-Schäffer, and we know from Houlbert (1918) that there were two females, so it’s reasonable to regard both specimens as syntypes.</p> <p>One of the syntypes has had a red label added which reads: LECTOTYPE / Castnia / cacica / Boisduval / designated by: / Jacqueline Y. Miller / 1977 (Fig. 6E). The lectotype designation appears not to have been published and we can see no legitimate reason for doing so, therefore both specimens remain syntypes, regardless of the label.</p> <p>Type locality: Given by Herrich-Schäffer as “Mont. Columb.” = mountains of Colombia. However, Boisduval ([1875]) provides further information, stating that “Nous avons reçu cette rare espèce de Goudot ainé, qui a trouvé accouplés le mâle et la femelle sur les bords de la Magdalena, en Colombie”. So, he received the specimens from the French explorer and naturalist-collector Justin Goudot (1802–1850) who found them in copula on the banks of the River Magdalena in Colombia. As the specimens are both females, they clearly cannot have been found in copula but were probably captured resting or in some other activity close to each other, confusing the collector. The type locality is certainly the River Magdalena, Colombia.</p> <p>Taxonomic status: A valid species of Amauta.</p> <p>Male genitalia: (Fig. 4B) Uncus simple, almost quadrate, slightly produced ventrad and with posterior margin unbent. Socii fused with uncus. Gnathos sclerotised, bifid anteriad, and excavate and dentate posteriad. Cucullus and valvula quadrate, with ventral margin of valva oblique, with a somewhat recurved lobe ventrad. Sacculus projected and fused and continuous with saccus arms. Phallus moderately sclerotised, with similar diameter throughout its entire length; its distal section moderately curved, very slightly contorted, double the length of coecum. Phallus possesses a characteristic adornment at its terminal portion with membranous projections of the vesica.</p> <p>Distribution: The species seems to be mostly confined to the Magdalena valley in Colombia. We have only seen reliable records from Boyacá department, we also know of records from Bogotá, Cauca and Valle del Cauca, but these localities seem doubtful (Fig. 13).</p> <p>Discussion: The name Castnia cacica appeared for the first time printed on the wrappers for part 7 of the first series (moths) of the plates of the first volume of Herrich-Schäffer’s Sammlung neuer oder wenig bekannter aussereuropäischer Schmetterlinge, as the unnumbered plates bear no names, only numbers for the figures. Part 7 was published first [May 1854], whereas the relevant text (pp. 53–84) was published later [April 1858]. Häuser et al. (2003) provided rationale why the combination of plates and their wrappers make this and similarly coined names available from the dates of their issue and reviewed the complex publishing history and dating of Herrich-Schäffer’s Sammlung […] aussereuropäischer Schmetterlinge.</p> <p>In recent works the taxa procera (Boisduval, [1875]) and angusta (H. Druce, 1907) have been treated as subspecies of A. cacica but dissection of the male genitalia proves them to be separate species.</p> <p>Material examined: For this study, as well as the types, we have examined 30 males and 49 females from Colombia, mainly from the Magdalena Valley.</p> </div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03E76362FFF5103414C7789EFD33FE61	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

(Ed.), Die Gross-Schmetterlinge der Erde 6: 13, Pl. 6, row d.</p> <p>Type material: Strand (1913b) wrote “Auffallend ist auch die starke Variabilität in der Grösse; von chiriquiensis liegen mir ♂♂ von 55—90 mm vor (die Type ist 55 mm)” [The variability in size is also remarkable, there are before me ♂♂ of chiriquiensis from 55 to 90 mm (the type is 55 mm)]; this means that the “ holotype ” can be narrowed down thanks to its wingspan of 55 mm, which is very unusual for this taxon. An original specimen with such a wingspan is in MfN and we consider it to be the holotype. In MfN there are also three other males that appear to be those mentioned in the original description, which should therefore be considered as paratypes. The holotype originally had a hand-written label reading “ Chiriqui Trötsch”, a pink “Type” label and a Strand determination label, this can be seen on an old photograph (Gerardo Lamas, pers. comm.), however, it was stolen together with many other types from Berlin some years ago by an unscrupulous dealer. Several years later a collection was given to the museum by the heirs of Ernst Jugl which contained many of the stolen specimens, which it is believed he bought from the dealer in question. Unfortunately, the original labels had been disposed of to hide their provenance. The 55 mm-holotype of chiriquiensis now bears a green determination label like all these specimens, and typed labels with “ Chiriqui ”, “ex coll Ernst Jugl” and “ex coll Staudinger”. A male was found in NHMUK with the data “ Chiriqui ” and a Strand determination label, this may be another paratype, which would demonstrate that the original series was scattered, but there is no way to be sure.</p> <p>Type locality: Strand (1913b) calls it a form from Chiriquí, so that is the type locality. Chiriquí is the name of a town, a volcano, and a province in south-west Panama.</p> <p>Taxonomic status: Originally described as a subspecies of diva and treated as such by Miller (1995) and Lamas (1995), this nominal taxon is here synonymised with Castnia diva diva Butler, 1870 (syn. nov.), so it is a junior subjective synonym of that taxon (now in Divana).</p> <p>Male genitalia: Not available.</p> <p>Distribution: This taxon is found only in Chiriquí province, Panama. We have seen specimens from Costa Rica referred to as ssp. chiriquiensis, but as we are unable to detect any differences in any of the Central American populations, this is irrelevant (Fig. 16).</p> <p>Discussion: There is a large series of 19 males and 4 females from Panama in NHMUK, along with 14 males and 8 females from other Central American countries including two syntypes of diva diva, we have also examined 31 males and 8 females from Central America in other collections. We can see no differences between specimens from Chiriquí and those from other Central American countries.</p> <p>Material examined: 22 males and 4 females from Panama were examined for this study.</p> </div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03E76362FFF4103514C7789EFB03FC1E	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Most other types of castniid taxa described by Krüger are in NHMUK but the discomaculata types cannot be found there. There are a few Krüger types in MfN so it is possible they may be there.</p> <p>Type locality: Given as “Ost=Columbien”, thus Eastern Colombia.

There are no features evident to separate this from typical cacica.</p> <p>Male genitalia: Not available.</p> <p>Distribution: Not relevant.</p> <p>Discussion: The Code (ICZN 1999: art. 45.6.4.) requires that a name given as a “form” before 1961 is considered to be of subspecific rank unless its author “expressly gave it infrasubspecific rank, or the content of the work unambiguously reveals that the name was proposed for an infrasubspecific entity”. In the original description by Krüger (1928) there are no clues that the author was considering f. discomaculata as infrasubspecific, rather there is contrary evidence. In fact, he was not describing a singleton but several specimens from Eastern Colombia as opposed to others from other places, including “anderen columbischen Lokalitäten”, where nominotypical cacica would occur. Further, he states that his form differs from “den bisher beschriebenen Formen oder Aberrationen”, which reveals that he was making use of the term “aberration” and did not employ it for discomaculata. We therefore consider this as an available name, to be retained in synonymy with nominotypical cacica.</p> </div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03E76362FFFB103A14C7792FFB20FD54	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

IV, fig. 1.</p> <p>Type material: All the evidence indicates that this species was described from a single female collected by Eujenio Garzón. We therefore consider the specimen as the holotype by [likely] monotypy (Fig. 10C). At the time of description, it was in the collection of Charles Oberthür (1845–1924), it is now in NHMUK.</p> <p>Type locality: Oberthür (1881) states “Superbe espèce découverte en Nouvelle-Grenade par l’indien Eujenio Garzon, qui chassait autrefois pour le compte du regretté M. Steinheil, de Munich, et de qui nous avons reçu une collection formée surtout aux environs de Santa-Rosa et de Carare.”; Nouvelle-Grenade is now known as Colombia. We believe that Oberthür misinterpreted the locality and that rather than the specimens being collected at <a href="https://tb.plazi.org/GgServer/search?materialsCitation.longitude=-74.00997&amp;materialsCitation.latitude=6.3425837" title="Search Plazi for locations around (long -74.00997/lat 6.3425837)">Santa Rosa</a> and <a href="https://tb.plazi.org/GgServer/search?materialsCitation.longitude=-74.00997&amp;materialsCitation.latitude=6.3425837" title="Search Plazi for locations around (long -74.00997/lat 6.3425837)">Carare</a> they were collected at <a href="https://tb.plazi.org/GgServer/search?materialsCitation.longitude=-74.00997&amp;materialsCitation.latitude=6.3425837" title="Search Plazi for locations around (long -74.00997/lat 6.3425837)">Santa Rosa del Carare</a>, which is a place in Santander province at 6°20’33.3”N 74°00’35.9”W. Oberthür does point out that the collection he received from Garzon was collected mainly at the two localities so it cannot be certain that this is the type locality, but it does seem highly probable.</p> <p>Taxonomic status: A valid species of Vadina fixed as the type species of this genus in the present publication, comb. nov.</p> <p>Male genitalia: (Fig. 4G) Uncus and anterior section of gnathos apophysis slightly sclerotised, more so than the tegumen. Gnathos slightly sclerotised, bifid and pointed anteriad. Cucullus and valvula rounded. Ventral margin of valva slightly concave. Sacculus almost quadrate. Ventral margin of valve slightly concave. Phallus slightly to moderately curved, its distal section slightly larger than twice the length of coecum, very slightly tapered.Subterminal portion of phallus enlarged. Terminal portion of phallus not contorted, open caudally and widely enlarged finishing in an almost pointed tip.</p> <p>Distribution: This appears to be a rare species, the nominotypical subspecies of which seems to be confined to northern and central areas of Colombia, particularly in the Magdalena valley. We know of records from the following departments: Bolívar, Santander, Boyacá, Cundinamarca and Valle del Cauca (doubtful) (see González et al. 2013) (Fig. 15).</p> <p>Discussion: Despite the somewhat wide area of distribution, the nominotypical subspecies appears to be rare and was only known from old specimens until a male was collected in 2019. It is replaced on the western slopes of the Western Cordillera of Colombia and in western Ecuador by ssp. kruegeri (Niepelt, 1927) (González et al. 2013); in the past kruegeri was considered to be even rarer than hodeei (González et al. 2013), but in recent years more material has become available from western Ecuador.</p> <p>There is an error in González et al. (2013); in the examined material one specimen was listed as “[this is the type specimen of Castnia corrupta described by Schaus (1896) and now considered a synonym of V. hodeei hodeei (Lamas, 1995)]”. In fact, the specimen mentioned, misidentified as C. corrupta, is the type of Castnia amazona Knop, 1925.</p> <p>Material examined: 12 males and 6 females were examined for this study. As well as the types of hodeei, corrupta and amazona, we have examined from Colombia 1♂ Guamoco, F. Johnson; 1♀ Caucaval [Cauca valley], F. Johnson (AMNH); 2♂♂ Bogota, Fre.

Hering sp.n. ” Hering, 1923, Deutsche Entomologische Zeitschrift “ Iris ” 37 (1/2): 17–18.</p> <p>Type material: The taxon was described from a single male, which is the holotype by monotypy. Gerardo Lamas (pers. comm.) has investigated this and provided the following information: there is a specimen in ETHZ which has an orange “Type” label, like many types in MfN, which has long been regarded as the type. This specimen was apparently sold by Bang-Haas to Biedermann in 1927 and carries another label reading “ Castnia / hoppi m typus! ♂ / det Mart Hering, which is typical of Hering labels in MfN. It also has a label reading “Buenavista, Barbacoas / Westküste, 900mtr. / Colombia / 15 Juli 22.”; as the type was collected at 700m. in 1921 this is not likely to be the type. There is a specimen in MfN, which does not bear a Type label, but has a hand-written label in very faint pencil which is only just legible, reading “Buenavista / 700mt / 13 Juli 1921 ”, it also carries a printed green label reading “Columbien / Dr. A. Scultze (sic!) S. G.”, this last label is probably spurious as it was Werner Hopp who collected the specimen, not Dr Schultze. As Hering used to work in Berlin, we assume that this MfN specimen is the true type and that Hering misread the date from the label when he mentioned “15 Juli” in the description. It is very possible that the determination labels were switched between the specimen now in MfN and that in ETHZ. There are also three males in NHMUK which have been provided with cotype or paratype labels by some misguided past curator, these are all from Rio Micay so cannot be types.</p> <p>Type locality: Given by Hering (1923) as “Colombien, West-küste; Buena visto (sic), am 15. Juli 1921 in 700 m Höhe gef”. Buenavista is in Barbacoas municipality in Nariño department in south-west Colombia.</p> <p>Taxonomic status: A subspecies of Divana diva (Butler, 1870). Originally described as a species, treated as a subspecies of tricolor by Miller (1995), Lamas (1995) sunk both tricolor and hoppi to subspecies of diva, an arrangement we follow.</p> <p>Male genitalia: (Fig. 5D) As in Divana diva diva, the uncus of diva hoppi is shortened in relation to the tegumen. The latter is not as rounded, but socii are also weakly developed. Subscaphium slightly sclerotised basad, and membranous distad. Gnathos is recurved and moderately sclerotised. Valvae are lobate, with numerous setae (not shown in drawing), and shorter when compared with diva diva. Sacculus is also weakly developed with a large setal tuft (not shown in drawing). Saccus blunt. Phallus as in nominotypical subspecies, with distal section stouter, more incrassate and contorted. Vesica spontaneously everted in our preparation, bearing minute spinous cornuti. Even though the male genitalia of diva hoppi is slightly different from diva diva (Figs. 5A, B), it is easy to see that they have a close resemblance. They differ from those of typical Telchin (Figs. 5E, F).</p> <p>Distribution: This is the south-western subspecies of Divana diva. All Colombian specimens have been collected on the western slopes of the Western Cordillera, with records from Valle del Cauca, Cauca and Nariño departments (Vinciguerra 2010; J. Salazar, pers. comm.). This cordillera continues south into the Western Cordillera of Ecuador; all the Ecuadorian specimens have been collected west of this cordillera in Esmeraldas and Carchi provinces (Fig. 16).</p> <p>Discussion: Although it was originally thought that hoppi was an endemic subspecies from south-west Colombia, the advent of reliable north-western Ecuadorian specimens quickly changed such a notion (Vinciguerra 2011). Unfortunately, not much is known of the species, and this subspecies is even more mysterious.</p> <p>Material examined: 24 males and 8 females were examined for this study. As well as the “type”, we have examined COLOMBIA: 2♂ Kolumb, Rio Micai – Joly, 23.5- 18.6.1924, Werner Hopp [one of these specimens bears a Bang-Haas co-type label but cannot be a type because of the collecting locality, it also has labels stating it was determined and dissected by J.Y.

According to Rebel (1915), this subspecies is very similar to cacica, but the forewing yellowish-cream bands are narrower. The hindwing orange band is broader in cacica.

Very probably from Yaculá or its surrounding forests, Nariño Department, where Krüger was collecting during the first few months of 1927 (see Discussion below). It cannot be further restricted.</p> <p>Taxonomic status: A valid subspecies of Vadina hodeei (Oberthür, 1881). Originally described as a species but not mentioned by Miller (1995), it was sunk to a subspecies of V. hodeei by Lamas (1995).</p> <p>Male genitalia: (Fig. 4H) Uncus with apex bifurcate. Uncus and anterior section of gnathos apophysis are more sclerotised than the tegumen. Gnathos sclerotised, bifid and pointed anteriad, excavate posteriad. Cucullus and valvula rounded. Ventral margin of valva slightly concave. Sacculus quadrate. Phallus curved, its distal section twice the length of coecum, slightly tapered. Subterminal portion of phallus enlarged. Terminal portion of phallus barely contorted and enlarged finishing in a somewhat pointed tip.</p> <p>Distribution: This is the south-western subspecies of Vadina hodeei. All Colombian specimens were collected on the western slopes of the Western Cordillera, with records from Valle del Cauca and Nariño departments (González &amp; Salazar 2003; González et al. 2013). This cordillera continues south into the Western Cordillera of Ecuador; all the Ecuadorian specimens were collected west of this cordillera in Esmeraldas province (see González et al. 2013) (pl. 15).</p> <p>Discussion: From 28 th January to 23 rd July 1927 Krüger was stationed in Yaculá, Nariño department, southwest Colombia (Pyrcz 2004), the label on the holotype reads “März-Juni 27”. This area appears to have been one of Krüger’s favourite Lepidoptera hunting grounds in Colombia, characterised by thick, humid piedmont forests typical of the “Pacific-Chocó Biogeographic Region”. It is part of the Tumbes-Chocó-Magdalena biogeographic hotspot that also includes the western region of Ecuador (Myers et al. 2000).</p> <p>The habitus of kruegeri is very consistent along the western slopes of the Colombian and Ecuadorian Western Cordillera based on the specimens we have examined, and there appear to be no intermediate phenotypes between this and nominotypical hodeei. The main difference in the male is that the white spot at the anal angle of the hindwing is much larger in kruegeri; in the female the white postmedian bands on all four wings are much narrower in kruegeri and both sexes are smaller than the nominotypical subspecies.</p> <p>Material examined: 30 males and 5 females were examined for this study.As well as the type, we have examined COLOMBIA: 1♂ Rio Calima, VII-1984 (MGCL); 1♂ Queremal, Valle, 9.IV.1985, J.

These are all syntypes and are now in NHMUK. There is one male from Zaruma and 11 males and 14 females from Balzapamba collected by Marc Hüe de Mathan (1876–1908) which are ex Oberthür and are definitely all syntypes of oberthueri (e.g. figs. 7D, E). There are four additional males and two females from Balzapamba which were not collected by de Mathan; these may also be syntypes, but we cannot be sure whether Houlbert examined them. There is also a male from Balzapamba in (MHNG) (ex Ch. Blachier) with the same de Mathan data, if this specimen was still in Oberthür’s collection when Houlbert examined it, it is also a syntype.</p> <p>Type locality: According to Houlbert (1917, 1918) all the types come from Balzapamba (Bolívar province) and Zaruma (El Oro province) in Ecuador.

It is replaced to the north in Panama by ssp. amethystina (Houlbert, 1917) which is also very rare. The very few specimens known from Venezuela appear to be intermediate but are probably referable to p. papilionaris. Subspecies velutina was described from Ecuador but we can see no justification for this subspecific separation (see velutina).

PROCERA. Boisd.” Boisduval, [1875], Species générale des Lépidoptères Hétérocères. Tome premier: Sphingides, Sésiides, Castnides: 503.</p> <p>Type material: Described from a single female which was a gift from M. de l’Orza (Fig. 6B). It bears the labels: Procera Bd / Mexiq, Castnia Procera / Bdv. (ex coll. Bdv.) / Mexique, ex coll. / Ch. Oberthür, and 10. C. procera / Mexico. This specimen is the holotype by monotypy and is now in NHMUK.</p> <p>Type locality: Boisduval states that Monsieur Paul de l’Orza received the type specimen from Guatemala, however, the type is in NHMUK and is clearly labelled “ Mexico ”. González (2008) listed it from that country based on this specimen. To our knowledge, the species has never been found as far north as Mexico and this is confirmed by local collectors who do not consider it to be a Mexican species (Jesús García pers. comm.), neither are there any recent records from Guatemala. The type locality is therefore in doubt.</p> <p>Taxonomic status: A valid species of Amauta. It was originally described as a species by Boisduval ([1875]) but treated as a subspecies of A. cacica by Miller (1995) and Lamas (1995). It is here restored as a valid species, stat. rest.</p> <p>Male genitalia: (Fig. 4A) Uncus simple, with a quadrate apex, as moderately sclerotized as the gnathos apophysis and the integument. Gnathos sclerotised, bifid anteriad and excavate. Cucullus and valvula slightly rounded and pointed ventrally, with ventral margin slightly concave. Sacculus not prominent. Distal section of phallus about four times the length of coecum and as wide as this at junction and basally, then slightly tapered up to the beginning of its middle section. From here to the apex, the phallus is of uniform width (very slightly tapered), except for the presence of two protuberances, one, at the beginning of the subterminal section and pointing to the exterior of the phallus. The second protuberance points towards the coecum and is present in the middle section between the first protuberance and the apex of the phallus. Small vesical protrusions may be noticed at the apex. Such a genitalia configuration, and specifically the phallus, has more similarities with angusta than with nominotypical cacica (see angusta and cacica above).</p> <p>Distribution: There are many records of this subspecies from Costa Rica (Limón, Cartago and Puntarenas provinces) and Panama (all known records are from Chiriquí province), and very few from Honduras and Nicaragua, but none that we would consider reliable from any other countries. Houlbert (1918) mentions it from Guatemala collected in “Polochic Valley, San Juan” (which is probably Finca San Juan in Senahú, Alta Verapaz). Rothschild (1919) confirms that at the Tring Museum (now in NHMUK) there is “ 1♀, [from] Guatemala [collected by Osbert] Salvin” and it was originally in “Coll. Felder” (González &amp; Hernández-Baz 2012); this specimen cannot be found in NHMUK. There is another male in NHMUK, ex Lehman coll., which has a printed label “ C. procera Mexico ”, but this appears to be a cabinet label showing the name of the species and the type locality and is not considered to be a locality label. We have seen specimens which appear to represent this subspecies labelled “ Mexico ”, “ Guatemala ”, and even “ Brazil ” but without any more precise data. In the absence of any corroborating evidence, these must be considered unreliable (Fig. 13).</p> <p>Discussion: This taxon has long been treated as a subspecies of Amauta cacica to which it is superficially similar, but comparison of the male genitalia shows that is clearly a separate species by the configuration of uncus, tegumen, valva, vinculum and phallus. The principal differences in wing pattern from A. cacica are that cacica usually has the forewing discal spot outlined in white whereas in procera it is only black, and procera usually only has four orange extradiscal spots on the hindwing whereas cacica always has five. Also, procera is on average larger than cacica.</p> <p>Material examined: For this study, as well as the holotype, we have examined 13 males and 11 females from Panama, 19 males and 17 females from Costa Rica, and 32 males and 10 females for which we do not have locality data.

Felder, 1874, Reise der österreichischen Fregatte Novara um die Erde in den Jahren 1857, 1858, 1859 unter den Befehlen des Commodore B. von Wütterstorf-Urbair Zoologische Theil, Zweiter Band. Zweite Abtheilung: Lepidoptera: 7, Pl. LXXIX, fig. 3.</p> <p>Type material: C. Felder &amp; R. Felder (1874) give ♂, Bogota (Lindig), Chiriqui (M.C.), so there was more than one syntype. There is a single syntype with a label reading “ Bogota / Lindig / type” in NHMUK, no others could be found. Specimens from Chiriquí would be referable to ssp. diva, not tricolor.</p> <p>Lectotype designation: The syntype has had a red label added which reads: LECTOTYPE / Castnia / tricolor / Felder / designated by: / Jacqueline Y. Miller / 1977 (fig. 11F). This lectotype designation appears not to have been published so is invalid.</p> <p>However, because the Felders’ original type locality included both Bogotá, from whence comes what is now generally accepted as tricolor, and Chiriquí, where ssp. diva is found, a lectotype designation is necessary to fix both the taxon identity and type locality. Therefore, the syntype from Bogotá in NHMUK is hereby designated as lectotype to fix it as the sole name-bearing type of the nominal taxon Divana diva tricolor (C. &amp; R. Felder, 1874) (Fig. 11F). If any other syntypes are found, they would be paralectotypes.</p> <p>Type locality: This is now fixed by the lectotype designation as Bogotá, Colombia, although this is almost certainly a generic locality designation (see “A note about locality data” in the introduction).</p> <p>Taxonomic status: A subspecies of Divana diva (Butler, 1870). Originally described as a species and treated as such by Miller (1995), Lamas (1995) sunk it to a subspecies of diva, an arrangement we follow.</p> <p>Male genitalia: (Fig. 5C) Similar to diva diva, this subspecies also has an uncus shortened in relation to the tegumen. Socii are also weakly developed. Subscaphium slightly sclerotised basad, and membranous distad. Gnathos moderately sclerotised, and recurved. Valvae lobate, with numerous setae as in diva diva. Valvae shorter than in diva diva, in relation to the whole genital armature, but as in the other diva subspecies, it is also obcordate posteriad, slightly concave anteriad. Sacculus weakly developed, but the setal tuft is smaller and shorter than in diva diva. Saccus blunt. Phallus as in nominotypical subspecies, slightly more incrassate and contorted distally; vesica as in other subspecies. Even though it is slightly different from the other subspecies, there is no doubt that they are closely related.</p> <p>Distribution: The nominotypical subspecies seems to be confined to the Magdalena valley in Colombia. We have only seen reliable records from Boyacá department (see also Vinciguerra 2010) (Fig. 16).</p> <p>Discussion: In the past there has been much confusion over the authorship and dates of taxa described in the “Reise … Novara…”. Miller (1995) assigned tricolor to Felder &amp; Rogenhofer, 1875, Lamas (1995) then assigned it solely to R. Felder, 1874. Here, we follow Nässig &amp; Speidel (2007) in assigning it to C. Felder &amp; R. Felder, 1874.</p> <p>Material examined: A large series of males and females was examined for this study. Most were from Otanche or Muzo in Boyacá department.</p></div> 	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03E76362FFC0100614C77EA4FE57FD26	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

He does not mention female characters in the description but neither does he exclude them, so it is possible that the type series also contained at least one female.</p> <p>In NHMUK there are two males and one female that have printed labels, presumably provided by Oberthür, reading: “D’un envoi fait de Guayaquil, par Erich Feyer à Carl Zacher d’Erfurt, saisi en mer sur le vapeur italien “ Sienna ” et vendu à Toulon par le service des prises le 7-10-1915 en exécution du décret du 18-3-1915.”. They also have syntype labels, so they are considered to be syntypic (Figs. 9A, B).</p> <p>Type locality: Houlbert (1917) states “Cette espèce a été reçu de Guayaquil qui est, comme on le sait, le grand port d’exportation de la République de l’Equateur; mais il est probable qu’elle vient de l’intérieur du pays, c’est-àdire des régions sylvatiques situées à l’est de la chaîne des Andes”. So, as Guayaquil is a large port and unlikely to be the original provenance of the specimens, he surmises that they must come from the interior of the country, that is, wooded regions to the east of the Andes.</p> <p>As the locality given is clearly not the collecting locality it is not possible to narrow the type locality beyond “ Ecuador ”.</p> <p>Taxonomic status: Originally described as a subspecies of papilionaris and treated as such by Miller (1995) and Lamas (1995), it is here sunk to a full synonym (syn. nov.). A junior subjective synonym of Castnia papilionaris papilionaris Walker, [1865] (now in Amauta).</p> <p>Male genitalia: See papilionaris.</p> <p>Distribution: Throughout Ecuador and northern and central Peru, as far south as at least Chanchamayo (Junín department) (Fig. 14).</p> <p>Discussion: Houlbert does not give any specific features to separate velutina from papilionaris. The only example of papilionaris available to Houlbert was Westwood’s (1877) stylised figure (Fig. 8C) (see amethystina and affinis), so any comparisons he made were meaningless. Comparing a large series of velutina with the few known specimens of p. papilionaris, it is not possible to see any consistent differences; therefore, we hereby synonymise velutina with papilionaris.</p> <p>Material examined: For this study, as well as the types, we have examined 31 males and 26 females from Ecuador, and 32 males and 24 females from Peru, as well as 25 males and 10 females for which we do not have locality data.</p> </div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03E76362FFC6100414C77EC3FE84FA99	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
