Cypholomia crypsibela
Meyrick, 1934: 530
.
Type
locality:
Democratic Republic of the Congo
Type material:
4 males
and
4 females
(
syntypes
), deposited in
RMCA
. Examined
.
Remarks
. Described from
four males
and
four females
from Elisabethville (currently Lubumbashi,
DRC
) (ex-coll. Seydel). It seems rather common in the
Katanga Province
, as several specimens are present not only in RMCA, but also in NHMUK and MHNG. Its genitalia are characteristic of
Prionotalis
Hampson, 1919
(see
Bassi, 2016: 13
,

). The species will be fully reviewed in a forthcoming paper on this genus.
