Diagnosis.
Anopinella macrosema
is one of the largest species in the genus; the male genitalia are somewhat similar to those of
A. phillipsae
and
A. peruvensis
in the possession of minute, highly reduced socii.
Anopinella phillipsae
has a much smaller forewing length, patches of shiny, apically recurved scales on the basal ca. 0.65 of the forewing (lacking in
A. macrosema
), and a broader, more apically recurved cucullus (
Fig. 24
,
25
).
Anopinella peruvensis
has a unique attenuate, upcurved apex of the valva (
Fig. 27
).
Anopinella macrosema
can be distinguished from other
Anopinella
by the combination of the following: large size, pale forewing ground color, minute socius, slightly apically recurved costa of the valva, broadly rounded apicoventral angle of the cucullus, and sparse hairlike spicules of the corpus bursae on the side opposite of ductus seminalis.
Description. Head: Frontoclypeus white, or white with dark brown on lateral marginal, vertex white intermixed with few dark brown scales; labial palpus with outer surface brown intermixed with white basally, inner surface white. Antenna with scape white; flagellomeres pale brown intermixed with few brown scales.
Thorax: Tegula and mesonotum white. Forewing (Fig. 82) length 9.912.0 mm (mean = 11.2; n = 10); basal fascia yellowish brown intermixed with few brown and reddishbrown scales; costal blotch yellowish brown intermixed with brown, reddish brown, and dark brown; basal fascia and costa blotch separated by a pale band of white intermixed with few yellowishbrown scales demarcating costal blotch, recurved from distal costa to tornus, encircling elliptical ocellus, except posterior end; costal blotch with a small white oblong spot near posterior end; area between CuP and posterior margin pale reddish brown intermixed with few brown scales; apical area reddish brown intermixed with brown; submarginal area reddish brown intermixed with brown. Fringe with inner portion gray, outer portion pale gray. Hindwing pale gray, with faint irregular transverse bands, gradually darkening from base to apex.
Abdomen: Male genitalia (
Fig. 24
; drawn from JWB slide 1067; n = 4) with uncus strongly curved at basal 0.33. Socius minute. Gnathos arms slender, with laterally flattened, uptunred apical lobes connected dorsally by an acutely arched flange. Valva with costa upturned at apex; sparse piliform setae on basal ridge; sacculus slightly rounded; postsacculus broadly emarginate, divergent from costa, forming an elongate, broadly rounded cucullus; cucullus moderately setose. Phallus weakly curved near middle; vesica densely microtrichiate. Female genitalia (
Fig. 47
; drawn from JWB slides 1068, 1190; n = 3) with weakly developed, subtriangular sclerotized patch at lamella postvaginalis; eighth tergum with a median longitudinal sinus; ostium Ushaped, slightly narrowed, ca. 0.25 width of seventh sternum at widest point. Ductus bursae moderately long; inception of accessory bursae ca. equidistant between ostium and corpus bursae. Corpus bursae large, subspherical, with sparse hairlike spicules on side opposite of ductus seminalis.

Etymology. The specific epithet is derived from “macro,” referring to the relatively large size of this species, and “sema” or seed.
