Abstract

We propose a new generic combination for the Mexican skipper Pholisora tepeca Bell, 1942, transferred into the genus Bolla Mabille, 1903, based on morphological and molecular data. In addition, taxonomic notes on this species, including a redescription of the male and the first illustrations of the female genitalia, a taxonomic catalogue, and a distributional map, are provided. Finally, we show that Bolla tepeca new comb. is closely related to Bolla saletas (Godman & Salvin, 1896). [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
