16. Platphalonidia aff. subolivacea (Walsingham, 1897) .

Two specimens of Platphalonidia that appear to be P. subolivacea were collected in Honduras, one as a larva on Calea urticifolia ( Asteraceae). Based on barcode data (see BOLD—https://v4.boldsystems.org/index.php/MAS_Management_UserConsole), this species appears to be a complex of closely related species that ranges from New York to the Caribbean and southward into Central America.

Specimens examined: Honduras: Tegucigalpa, 19 Dec 1978 (1♂), larva on Calea urticifolia ( Asteraceae), S. Passoa, larva # 68, genitalia slide # 198 S. Passoa coll. (SCPC). Comayagua, 12 Apr 1979 (1♀), at light (SCPC) .
