A New Species of Amorbia from the Mountains of Northwestern Mexico (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae)
2014
Brown, John W.
Amorbia erinae, new species, is described and illustrated from the states of Durango and Chihuahua, Mexico. Superficially, the new species is highly divergent from its congeners, with a forewing pattern that features longitudinal bands of pale orange and cream, typical of tortricids that either feed on pine or occur in pine-dominated montane habitats, e.g., Eupinivora ponderosae Brown (Euliini: Cochylina), Argyrotaenia coconinana Brown & Cramer (Archipini), and Sparganothis bistriata Kearfott (Sparganothini). However, the absence of ocelli and features of the male and female genitalia convincingly place the new species in Amorbia.
