Eucosmocydia mixographa Meyrick, 1939 View in CoL , comb. n. ( Figs 47, 114)

Laspeyresia mixographa Meyrick, 1939 View in CoL . Transactions of the Royal Entomological Society of London 89(4): 51. Brown 2005, Catalogue of Insects 5: 366 (unplaced species).

Lectotype female. Here designated. Label data (6): "Type, L. mixographa View in CoL "; "Musée du Congo, Eala, iii.1936, J. Ghesquière, 2152b"; " R. Dét., UU, 3257"; "M5304"; " Lectotype, Laspeyresia mixographa, Meyrick View in CoL (female), Genital prep. 98060, L. Aarvik "; " MRAC / KMMA 00327 View Materials "; specimen ID: RMCA ENT 000005036 View Materials ( Fig. 47).

Female genitalia ( Fig. 114). Papilla analis slender, expanded subterminally; apophyses slender; sterigma weakly sclerotized; ductus bursae without sclerites; signa pair moderate.

Remarks. Described from 2 specimens (1♂ and 1♀). The male paralectotype is depostited in BMNH (K. Tuck, pers. comm.). The lectotype was selected by Aarvik in 1998 but was not published until the present paper. We provisionally place mixographa in Eucosmocydia Diakonoff, 1988 owing to similarities of the genitalia with other African species of that genus.
