are recognizable by their small to moderate size, only slightly falcate forewing apices, and yellowish tan to gold ground color with gray highlights, especially near the discal region. The postmedial lunule is bright white and only barely curved outward toward the forewing margin, not sharply curving as in other species-groups. The phallus is broad, usually with a small protuberance dorsally but always without a dorsal ridge. The gnathos processes are unique in that they are very broad, flat, and subtriangular, not oblong or thick as in most other species-groups. Female genitalia are separable from those of the similar female of

Hindwing venter: Following similar pattern as forewing venter but discal mark not always present. Abdomen: As for genus. Coloration a continuation of tan or golden thoracic color. Midventral stripe absent. Genitalia: (Fig. 72) n = 16. Tegumen rectangular or somewhat ovoid, especially when prominently constricted at base of gnathos. Vinculum narrow, somewhat quadrate ventrally. Valves asymmetrical, relatively narrow, saccular edge of left valve with large triangular tooth proximal to transtilla, right valve with tooth much reduced in size, both valves with smaller mesal costal teeth immediately above saccular edge teeth, apex of mesal tooth pointed toward saccular edge. Valves rounded apically. Uncus handbell-shaped, truncated apically, apex rounded. Gnathos as two prominent, moderately flattened, subtriangular outward facing flaps, upturned where they converge over phallus. Juxtal processes shorter than phallus, flattened, slightly curved, covered in short setae. Base of phallus with

, somewhat elongated, rounded, diverging, backwards facing fingerlike lobes. Phallus broad, widened mesally, usually with a small protuberance dorsally but extended dorsal ridge absent. Left edge of rolled phallus simple, without ridge-like process, distal tip of phallus separated into two distinct, bent points. Vesica small, bag-like. Female.Head: As in male, antennae slightly smaller overall. Thorax: As in male. Legs: As in male. Forewing dorsum: Forewing length: 21 mm, n = 1. As in male but barely more elongated, only slightly broader, less falcate, postmedial line bent mesally. Faint brown antemedial line present, undulated. Forewing venter: As in forewing dorsum but postmedial line fainter, antemedial absent, small black discal spot present. Hindwing dorsum: As in male but slightly broader. Hindwing venter: Following similar pattern as forewing venter except lighter, frenulum reduced. Abdomen: As in male but stouter. Sternites of VIII as pair of elongated sclerotized bands widening toward anterior margin of VIII. Genitalia: (Fig. 92) n = 1. Tergite of VIII very thin, converging mesally to form anteriorly directed point. Apophyses anteriores slightly shorter than apophyses posteriores. Lamella antevaginalis ribbon-like, weakly concave mesally. Ductus bursae thin. Papillae anales rectangular when viewed ventrally, covered in setae.

Specimens from Panama (Fig. 8) are slightly grayer and a bit darker overall, but like the Colombian populations, show no genitalia differences specifically applicable to this geographic form. Additionally, in specimens from Ecuador, the dorsal point of the phallus is somewhat more pronounced than in other populations, and one specimen from a relatively high elevation (1097 m) in Ecuador has much darker postmedial lines than most other individuals of
