Cicinnus enthona Schaus, 1905.

Diagnosis.

Reinmara can be recognized by the following combination of characters: contrast between medial and submarginal areas due to diffuse pink or silvery-gray scaling delimited by strongly marked, relatively straight postmedial line; notched forewing tornus and anterior margin of hindwing. In all but one species ( T. ignea St Laurent, Herbin, & C. Mielke) female and male antennae are strongly dimorphic, being bipectinate in males as is typical of Mimallonidae and dentate in females. Such dimorphism is only also observed in unrelated Roelofa .

Apomorphies.

Combination of the following characters: (1) Saccular edge of valva curled, with short spine of variable length (Fig. 18a); (2) Bulbous, asymmetrically sized setae-filled diaphragmal sacs (Fig. 18b); (3) Gnathos mesally fused and bifid with fingerlike tips distally (Fig. 18c).
