BONAGOTA Razowski, 1986 View in CoL

Bonagota Razowski, 1986: 22 View in CoL ; Powell, 1986: 397; Brown, 1989: 320; Powell et al. 1995: 143; Razowski 1999a: 308, 1999b: 324, 1999c: 87; Razowski and Becker, 2000: 65.

Type species: Sciaphila bogotana Walker, 1863 , by original designation ( Razowski 1986).

Diagnosis. As indicated above, Bonagota is most similar in facies and genitalia to Apotomops . The genus is defined by the extremely elongate socii, the extremely broad valva (usually slightly broadened near middle), and the extreme sexual dimorphism in forewing pattern and size (except for B. arizonae Razowski and Becker ). The male antennae range from weakly serrate (e.g., B. salubricola (Meyrick)) to nearly pectinate (e.g., B. dominicana Razowski ).

Remarks. Razowski and Becker (2000) augmented the original description of the genus ( Razowski 1986), including 12 species, 5 of which were described as new. We transfer Sericoris wilkinsoni Butler from Bonagota to Ptychocroca (above); we transfer B. carchicola Razowski and Becker and B. sololana from Bonagota to Apotomops (above); and we synonymize Phtheochroa cranaodes Meyrick with Eulia salubricola Meyrick (below). Based on these changes, as presently defined, Bonagota includes 8 described species ( Table 2) distributed throughout the New World tropics from Uruguay ( Chambon et al. 1997), Argentina, and Brazil ( Razowski 1986, Brown and Passoa 1998), north through Central America to Arizona, U.S.A. ( Razowski and Becker 2000). It also has been recorded from the Dominican Republic in the Caribbean ( Razowski 1999a). Bonagota has become one of the best known genera in Euliini because of the recent systematic treatment ( Razowski and Becker 2000), the growing list of larval host plants documented for the genus ( Brown and Passoa 1998), and the synthesis of the male sex pheromone of “ B. cranaodes ” ( Park et al. 1998, Coracini et al. 1999, Eiras et al. 1999, Yadav and Reddy 2000). Bonagota salubricola (reported as its junior synonym, B. cranaodes ) is an important pest of apples in Brazil. We also take this opportunity to present an illustration of the female of B. arizonae because it has not previously been figured elsewhere ( Fig. 27 View FIGURES 22 – 27 ).
