2. Thubdora crocophracta (Meyrick, 1938), comb. nov. (Figs. 21 A–F) Ptilothyris crocophracta Meyrick, 1938: 18. TL: DR Congo. [RMCA, NHMUK]. Material examined. 1♂ (lectotype hereby designated), DR Congo, Kamatembe, 2100 m, iv 1934, leg. F. De White, gen. slide no. CIS-7217, in RMCA. Other paralectotypes in NHMUK; additional specimen: 1♂, Kenya, Lift Valley, Turi 8000ft, 14 i 1999, DJL Agassiz, gen. slide no. CIS-7103. Male genitalia (Figs. 21 C–E): Characterized by the uncus broadened distally with widely flattened, even slightly sinuate caudal margin, as wide as the basal plate of gnathos; valva with broad expansion medially on ventral margin; juxta with large triangular caudal plate; and aedeagus with a large cluster of spines apically. Distribution. DR Congo (Kamatembe) (Meyrick 1938), Kenya (new record). Remarks. As noted in the preceding species, T. crocophracta (Meyrick) is externally similar to T. brachysema (Meyrick), but it can be distinguished by having a distinct median band on the forewing, reaching to the inner margin; and male genitalia with the uncus with widely flattened caudal margin, and the juxta with a large, well-developed, triangular caudal process.
