Pareuchaetes aurata aurata (Butler, 1875)

Leucanopsis infucata (Berg, 1882) syn. n.

Diacrisia pulverea Hampson, 1905 . Synonymized by Cock & Holloway (1982)

Leucanopsis infucata (Berg, 1882) was described originally as Halysidota Hübner, [1819], based on a male holotype from Misiones, Argentina, and has been recently stated as a valid species by Beccacece et al. (2014). However, the original description of L. infucata Berg (1882) stated: “Tiene mucha semejanza con la H. atomosa Walk., de la cual se distingue por su menor tamaño … por la coloración amarilla más impura y la carencia de manchas o puntos oscuros en el tórax y en las alas anteriores [Similar to H. atomosa Walk, from which it can be distinguished by means of its smaller size… for the impure yellow color pattern and the absence of dark spots or points on thorax and forewings].” These characteristics mentioned by Berg are the same as those of Pareuchaetes aurata aurata (Butler, 1875) . Recently, new male specimens with the habitus to the holotype of L. infucata illustrated by Beccacece et al. (2014) have been collected in Misiones (Fig. 15). The male genitalia (Figs. 16, 17) was compared with the figures included in the review of the genus Pareuchaetes made by Jordan (1916) and Rego Barros (1956). In fact, the habitus and genitalia of L. infucata correspond to Pareuchaetes aurata aurata (Butler, 1875) . For these reasons, a new synonymy is here proposed.
