Systematics of the Chrysoxena Group of Genera (Lepidoptera : Tortricidae: Euliini) Paperback / softback
by John W. Brown, Jerry A. Powell
Part of the UC Publications in Entomology series
Paperback / softback
Description
The authors examine relationships within the Chrysoxena group of the tortricid tribe Euliini.
They define 54 species among six genera: Chrysoxena Meyrick; Vulpoxena Brown, new genus; Thoridia Brown, new genus; Dorithia Powell; Cuproxena Powell and Brown, new genus; and Bidorpitia Brown, new genus.
Using cladistic methods, the authors develop a phylogenetic hypothesis for the genera and species groups of Dorithia and Cuproxena.
A systematic treatment of the included species provides appropriate generic assignment for several previously misplaced species and describes many taxa as new.
