Buzyges mellanaformis

.
Definition.
Not monophyletic with
Buzyges idothea
Godman, [1900]
, the
type
species of
Buzyges
Godman, [1900]
, this genus is placed in a different clade instead (
Fig. 13
). Detailed diagnosis of
mellanaformis
given by
Austin and Warren (2009:28
, fig. 70, 82, 90) can be applied to this genus (
Austin and Warren 2009
). In brief, differs from related genera by long antennae, the lack of stigma, short tegumen and uncus and relatively small valva with broad trapezoid harpe (shared with
Buzyges
), but penis narrower and cornuti are smaller than in
Buzyges
(see Fig. 70 and
82 in
Austin and Warren (2009))
, mid- and hind-tibiae without spines characteristic of
Buzyges
and forewing outer margin more convex. In DNA, a combination of the following base pairs is diagnostic: aly386.7.5:A874T, aly207.4.6:A367T, aly320.7.8:G428A, aly128.6.20:C131C (not G), aly708.6.1:A1197A (not G), aly1838.58.4:T1070T (not C), aly536.174.1:A1825A (not C), aly2582.33.4:A512A (not T), aly3071.1.1:C135C (not T).
