CHECK LIST OF THE OLD WORLD EPIPASCHIINAE AND

THE RELATED NEW WORLD GENERA MACALLA AND

EPIPASCHIA (PYRALIDAE)

M. Alma Solis

Systematic Entomology Laboratory, PSI, USDA % National Museum of Natural History, NHB 168, Washington, D.C. 20560.

ABSTRACT. Two hundred seventy-three Old World species and 14 New World species belonging to Macalla Walker and Epipaschia Clemens are included. Information about the taxonomic status of Macalla, Locastra, Stericta, and Coenodomus is provided. Twenty-one new synonyms and eighteen new combinations are proposed.

Additional key words: Pococera complex, Locastra, Stericta, Coenodomus, Lista.

The Epipaschiinae are a large subfamily of over 700 species worldwide. Within the subfamily a monophyletic group of New World genera and species, the Pococera complex (Solis 1989) can be recognized. A check list of the Pococera complex will be published in the future in the context of a systematic revision and phylogenetic analysis (Solis in press). The remaining taxa are listed herein, including all Old World epipas-chiines and New World Macalla Walker and Epipaschia Clemens. Macalla and Epipaschia are included because morphological studies (Howard & Solis 1989, Solis 1989) show them to be more closely related to Old World genera than to the New World Pococera complex. Some species previously placed in Macalla in the Old World are not related to New World Macalla. In the present check list these are placed in Salma Walker, the next available name (Shaffer et al. in press). Anyone using this list also should refer to the Checklist of the Lepidoptera of Australia (Shaffer et al. in press) for further new combinations and synonymies in reference to the Australian fauna. Nevertheless, this list will provide a foundation for anyone wishing to conduct taxonomic work on the Epipaschiinae since the monophyly of the genera is still in question, and the placement of some genera within the Epipaschiinae requires verification.

Some species in the Western Hemisphere were incorrectly associated with Locastra Walker and Stericta Lederer. The Western Hemisphere species placed in them belong to genera in the Pococera complex. Dissection of the types of L. crassipenis Walker (synonym of L. mai-manalis Walker) and S. divitalis (Guenee), the type species of Locastra and Stericta reveals these genera to be restricted to the Old World.

Coenodomus Walsingham, an Old World genus, is attributed to the North American fauna (Hodges et al. 1983). Two genera, Dyaria Neu-moegen and Alippa Aurivillius, are junior synonyms of Coenodomus. In 1893 Neumoegen described Dyaria in the Lymantriidae and named

it after his "faithful co-labourer and friend Mr. H. G. Dyar" based on a male specimen supposedly caught in Bangor, Maine. In 1900 Dyar referred Dyaria to the Epipaschiinae and synonymized with it Alippa Aurivillius, a genus placed previously in the Limacodidae. He stated: "Its occurrence in North America needs verification, in spite of the positive statement published/' I have not seen any other specimens in any museum of this genus with collection data referring to the Western Hemisphere. Walsingham described this genus based on material he received from India reared from Eugenia jambolana Lamarck (Myr-taceae). Lista Walker is revised based on Michael Shaffer's unpublished work at the The Natural History Museum, London, England.

The generic names were crosschecked with The Generic names of Moths of the World (Fletcher & Nye 1984). The generic name is followed by the year and page of the citation and the type species in parentheses. Synonyms are listed under the generic or species name. Citations and type localities of all species names, including synonyms, are listed. If the original type locality did not include the modern country, it is provided, followed by the more specific type locality. When no specific locality is given and/or the original general locality is ambiguous, the original general locality is listed.

I thank Michael Shaffer for allowing me to use the catalog at The Natural History Museum, London, England to crosscheck my list. The following individuals and institutions also provided material, types, and/or photos: E. Nielsen (Australian National Insect Collection), P. Viette and J. Minet (Museum National d'Histoire Naturelle), C. B. Cottrell (Transvaal Museum), H. J. Hanneman (Zoologisches Museum, Humboldt Universitat), M. Lodl (Naturhistorisches Museum Wien), U. Dall'Asta (Musee Royal de L'Afrique Centrale), and J. Rawlins (Carnegie Museum). Funds for study in London were provided by the Gahan Fellowship from the Department of Entomology, University of Maryland, and Sigma Xi.
