REMARKS.—One of two Ecuadorian species with infuscation connecting all crossveins and proximal apical cells and dark infuscation on the ambient vein and distal apical cell veins. This species can be distinguished from
F. poulaini
by the rounded posterolateral margin and pointed medial opercular margin, and the longer uncal dorsal crest that does not start to broaden at the base. It can be distinguished from
F. besti
and
F. brunnea
by the more robust body, and the infuscation is continuous through the fore wing crossveins and proximal marginal veins. The infuscation in the wings distinguishes it from
F. picea
,
F. pronoe
and
F. ptychodiropeda
.
DISTRIBUTION.—The species has been reported previously from
Colombia
(Sanborn 2013) with recent records from
Bolivia
(
Sanborn 2019b
) and
Peru
(
Sanborn 2020b
).
