ABSTRACT The identity of Syllepte incomptalis Hübner, 1823 is elucidated. Pantographa Lederer, 1863, syn. n., and Micromartinia Amsel, 1957, syn. n., are junior synonyms of Syllepte Hübner, 1823, including 15 species: S. incomptalis Hübner, 1823 (=P. idmonalis Druce, 1895, syn. n.); S. acoetesalis (Walker, 1859), comb. n.; dialis Schaus, 1912 (=S. strigicincta Hampson, 1912, syn. n.); S. expansalis (Lederer, 1863), comb. n.; S. gorgonalis (Druce, 1895), comb. n.; S. limata (Grote & Robinson, 1867), comb. n.; S. scripturalis (Guenée, 1854), comb. n.; S. suffusalis (Druce, 1895), comb. n.; S. fraternalis Becker, sp. n., from Mexico; S. confusalis Becker, sp. n. from Brazil, and S. sororalis Becker, sp. n., from Brazil. Neomabra Dognin, 1905, stat. rev., is revalidated, including two species: N. nitidalis Dognin, 1905, comb. rev. and N. serratilinealis (Lederer, 1863), comb. n. Bocchoropsis Amsel, 1956, syn. n. is a junior synonym of Haritalodes Warren, 1890, including two species: H. derogata (Fabricius, 1775) and H. pharaxalis (Druce, 1895), comb. n. (=S. prorogata Hampson, 1912, syn. n.; =B. plenilinealis Dyar, 1917, syn. n.). Psara imbroglialis (Dyar, 1914), comb. n. [from Syllepte].
