Eneoptera spodios Otte, 2006: 355 View in CoL . — Eades et al. 2013.

Species inquirenda, this study.

TYPE LOCALITY. — Costa Rica, Heredia, Estacion Biologica La Selva.

DIAGNOSIS AND REVISION. — According to the forewing venation pattern of the female holotype, there is no doubt that the species described as Eneoptera spodios by Otte (2007: fig. 57) does not belong to Eneoptera or even to

Eneopterinae according to general shape of head, large whitish maxillary palpi, and female forewing venation. In particular, the longitudinal veins of dorsal field are straight from base to apex, while they are curved in the other Eneoptera species (see in Fig. 1 View FIG the photographs of the holotype of E. surinamensis ). Unfortunately, as the description and photograph do not allow attributing the name spodios a genus identification, we are forced to leave it under Eneoptera as a species inquirenda.
