Description.— Head: Vertex and frontoclypeus brownish orange; labial palpus with outer margin brownish orange intermixed with few dark­brown scales, inner surface pale brownish orange intermixed with few brownish­orange scales; scape of antenna brownish orange, flagellomeres pale brownish orange; male 4 th flagellomere dorsally protuberant and curved, forming a deep concavity opposite slightly excavated flagellomeres 5–6 [setiform scales on apex of protuberance of 4 th flagellomere missing]; proboscis pale brownish orange. Thorax: Tegula and mesonotum brownish orange. Legs pale brownish orange. Forewing (Fig. 299 ): Length 9.1 mm (n = 1 ), brownish orange with a brown spot near distal end of cell. Undersurface brownish orange. Hindwing: Brownish orange. Abdomen (Fig. 36 ): Male with 4 transverse, irregular rows of sex scales on intersegmental area between terga 2–3 . Male Genitalia (Figs. 37–38 ): Uncus elongate, wide at base, parallelsided to midlength, gradually narrowing to an acuminate and setose apex; gnathos sparsely setose, protuberant, wide throughout length, upturned apically; tegumen slightly widened basally; dorsal strut of tegumen absent; costa of valva gradually sloped to an abruptly upturned apical furca; furca with slightly serrate outer margin; base of costa with a digitate process with a knoblike apical process; sacculus twisted apically, constricting valva slightly before midlength, widening distoventrally, forming an elongate and broadly rounded cucullus; cucullus membranous and setose; vesica of aedeagus denticulate, bearing a broad and elongate apical cornutus; cornutus with a slightly shortened side, exposing a hollow, basal cavity.

Distribution of Glyphidocera corniculae () and G. te rr ae (). Distribution ( Map 7 ): Glyphidocera corniculae is known from one collecting site in the cloud forests of Monteverde in west­central Costa Rica along the southern part of the Cordillera de Tilarán. Etymology: The species name corniculae is from the Latin “cornicula” meaning a little cow.
