Bassi, Graziano, Sáfián, Szabolcs, Léger, Théo, Müller, Günter C., Kravchenko, Vasiliy D. & Poltavsky, Alexander N., 2021, Ancylogastra, a new genus of Afrotropical Crambinae, with descriptions of seven new species (Lepidoptera, Pyraloidea, Crambidae), Zootaxa 5052 (1), pp. 42-60 : 44

Prionotalis crypsibela (Meyrick, 1934) , comb. n.

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, Fig 8 , 11 ). The species will be fully reviewed in a forthcoming paper on this genus.
