Carineta doxiptera Walker, 1858a new record

Carineta doxiptera Walker 1858a: 313 . (Constancia, Province of Rio, Brazil)

REMARKS. This is one of a group of species in Bolivia including C. doxiptera , C. ensifera n. sp., C. gemella , C. hamata n. sp., C. socia , and C. viridicata that are similar in size and monochromatic coloration. It can be distinguished from C. socia and C. viridicata by the lack of bronzing of the distal fore wings and longitudinal lines within of the fore wing apical cells in these species. Both C. ensifera n. sp. and C. hamata n. sp., have light bronzing in the distal fore wings rather than the dark bronzing characteristic of C. doxiptera and C. gemella . It is most similar to C. gemella but can be distinguished reliably from C. gemella only by the male genitalia with the basal lobe appendage being smoothly curved with a bifurcated tip with tips of equal length forming a C-shaped depression in the terminus in C. doxiptera but the basal lobe appendage cross on the midline returning the tip to the ipsilateral side, the tip widens before bifurcating into two thin extensions with the lateral extension about twice as long as the medial extension in C. gemella .

DISTRIBUTION. The species has been reported previously from Brazil and French Guiana ( Metcalf 1963c; Sanborn 2011a).
