Figs. 10 , 22 , 36

Eulia haematitis Meyrick, 1931a: 381 ; Clarke, 1958: 127 (illustration of adult and male genitalia). Haemateulia heamatitis: Razowski, 1999c: 71 (illustration of male genitalia); Brown, 2000b: 110; Brown and McPherson, 2002: 137.

Diagnosis. The differences between H. haematitis and H. barrigana are described above. Because H. haematitis previously was known only from the holotype, we take this opportunity to present new distributional data and illustrate the female genitalia for the first time ( Fig. 22 ). We provide an illustration of the male genitalia ( Fig. 10 ) for purposes of comparison with those of H. barrigana ( Fig. 11 ).
