Subgenus Cornutivulpecula Karisch, 2013

Cornutivulpecula Karisch, 2013 , Esperiana 18: 74. Type species: Cyana klohsi Karisch, 2003 (by original designation).

Diagnosis. The subgenus is characterized by the presence of an undivided androconial lobe on the male forewing underside, the presence of the M1 vein and the partially obsolescent terminal vein of the cell. In the male genitalia, the medial process of the valva is absent and the aedeagus is larger than that of other subgenera. The female genitalia are characterized by the absence of a sclerite in the corpus and ductus bursae, and the narrow ductus bursae partially lacking sclerotization ( Karisch 2013).
