Type locality: Haiti.
Synonyms: Psyche watsoni.
E. Caribbean records: Grenadines.
Grenadines records: Bequia, Canouan, Mayero, Frigate (E.U. Exp. No. 97).
Method of identification: adult and genitalia illustrated by Davis (1975). Misidentified in the Exeter University Expedition report as 'Marmopteryx watsoni', allegedly a Geometrid - although I can find no trace of this name as a valid Geometrid species and do not know where it came from.
