Adlerodea asema ( Mabille, 1891) and Adlerodea subpunctata ( Hayward, 1940) , new combinations
Currently placed in Eutychide Godman, 1900 (type species Hesperia physcella Hewitson, 1866 ), Pamphila asema Mabille, 1891 (type locality Honduras) and Eutychide subpunctata Hayward, 1940 (type locality Argentina) sequenced from their primary type specimens, are not monophyletic with it and instead cluster closely with Adlerodea Hayward, 1940 (type species Adlerodea modesta Hayward, 1940 ) ( Fig. 13 View Figure 13 ). Genitalia are similar between these species, as well as the brands on forewing. Therefore, we propose Adlerodea asema ( Mabille, 1891) , new combination, and Adlerodea subpunctata ( Hayward, 1940) , new combination.
Psoralis concolor Nicolay, 1980 View in CoL is a junior subjective synonym of Ralis immaculatus ( Hayward, 1940) , new combination
Inspection of photographs of the holotype of Oeonus immaculatus Hayward, 1940 View in CoL (type locality Ecuador: Morona Santiago, Sucúa) currently in Mucia Godman, 1900 View in CoL (type species Mucia thyia Godman, 1900 View in CoL , a junior subjective synonym of Hesperia zygia Plötz, 1886 View in CoL ), and the original illustration of its genitalia ( Hayward 1940) reveal strong similarities with Psoralis concolor Nicolay, 1980 View in CoL (type locality Ecuador: Napo, Cotundo) named 40 years later and currently in Ralis Grishin, 2019 (type species Lerema coyana Schaus, 1902 View in CoL ). The similarities include general dark-brown coloration, wing shape, very prominent stigma, shape of harpe, uncus and aedeagus. Moreover, a specimen identified after genitalic dissection by Nicolay himself as Mucia immaculatus View in CoL (NVG-19069D04) is conspecific with Ralis concolor according to genomic analysis ( Fig. 13 View Figure 13 ). Both taxa are from the eastern slopes of Andes in Ecuador. Therefore, we propose that Psoralis concolor Nicolay, 1980 View in CoL is a junior subjective synonym of Ralis immaculatus ( Hayward, 1940) , new combination.
