Cincia sordida
Distribution: Jamaica only.
Type locality: Jamaica.
Synonyms: Aemene sordida Kirby 1892; Cincia conspersa
Hampson (nec Walker) in part,
Cat. Lep. Phal. B.M. 2; 389.
Source of record: Field (1950) records 19 specimens of this species from 5 parishes.
Method of identification: male and female genitalia illustrated by Field (1950).
Notes: Until the
revision of Field (1950) this species was lumped together into the two species Cincia
conspersa and Cincia pallida - the two 'species' recorded by Gowdey (1926)
from Jamaica. They can only easily be separated by genitalial dissection.
