Eucosma rigens Meyrick, 1938 ( Figs 46, 113)

Eucosma rigens Meyrick, 1938 . Institut des Parcs nationaux du Congo belge 14: 9. Brown 2005. World Catalogue of Insects 5: 333 (unplaced species).

Holotype female. Label data (10): " Holotype, E. rigens M."; "Type"; "Musée du Congo, Kibati (1900), 10– 20.i.1934, G. F. de Witte 160, Parc Nat. Albert"; " Congo belge: Kivu, Kibati, 1900 m. 10–20.i.1934, G. F. de Witte: 160"; " E. Meyrick det., 1937: Eucosma , rigens Meyr. "; " R. Dét., 4070, X"; "P62"; " ♀ "; " Holotype, Eucosma rigens, Meyrick (female), Genital prep., 98055 L. Aarvik "; " MRAC / KMMA 00324 View Materials "; specimen ID: RMCA ENT 000005017 View Materials ( Fig. 46).

Female genitalia ( Fig. 113). Papilla analis and apophyses slender; sterigma rather short, broad; sclerite of antrum short, weakly extending proximally in middle; ductus bursae broad; signa paired, relatively large.

Remarks. Described from the female holotype only. The generic position of this species is uncertain. The female genitalia show that it does not fit in its original genus, Eucosma Hübner, 1823 . In spite of this, we prefer leaving it in the original genus until more data are available.
