HW with smooth outer margin; DHW with a narrow submarginal band, practically imperceptible in the anal region ( Fig. 165).  Opsiphanes caliensis  stat. nov.is sympatric with  Opsiphanes periphetes  stat. nov., and these are indistinguishable in ventral view, but besides the other distinguishing characters, the aedeagus of  Opsiphanes caliensis  stat. nov.in dorsal view lacks sclerotization in the anterior region and the spines are concentrated from the median to the distal region ( Fig. 166). Whereas, in the same structures and view,  Opsiphanes periphetes  stat. nov.has the anterior region sclerotized and the spines concentrated in the median region ( Fig. 209). Female: Unknown.   FIGURE 166.  Opsiphanes caliensis Bristow, 1991  stat. nov.: Male: a. abdomen, lateral view, b. detail of the scent organ, lateral view; genitalia: c. dorsal view, d. ventral view, e. lateral view; aedeagus: f. dorsal view, g. ventral view, h. lateral view (DZ 41.604-DZUP).  Male genitalia.Tegumen in dorsal view with anterior margin straight and about the same width as the posterior margin; anterior projection of saccus in lateral view more than twice as long as dorsal arms of saccus; valva in dorsal view with convergingly curved posterior portions ( Fig. 166).   FIGURE 167.Geographical distribution of  Opsiphanes caliensis Bristow, 1991 stat. nov.   FIGURE 168.  Opsiphanes caliensis Bristow, 1991  stat. nov.Holotype of  Opsiphanes caliensis Bristow, 1991  stat. nov.; a.dorsal view, b.ventral view.  Female genitalia.Not examined.   Variation.FW, length: male: 38–41 mm(n=4). DFW, the width of the band inside the discal cell, and the anterior margin of this band may have V-shaped indents, while the posterior margin may be straight or concave in the median region; and the width of the oblique band.
