McDunnough (1934) mentioned as var. comparana a species of the 

 gi'oup latifasciana, recorded in Canada. He wrote that this species 

 has been "frequently mtercepted in the larval or pupal state on azaleas 

 imported from Holland and Belgium," and it "appears to show con- 

 stant, slight genitalic differences which may indicate specific or at 

 least racial distinctness," in comparison to another Canadian species 

 which McDunnough called latifasciana and which in fact is a new 

 species described in the present paper as macdunnoughi. As noted by 

 McDunnough, the genitalia of the species found in Canada on im- 

 ported azaleas "agree remarkably well with Pierce's figures of com- 

 parana Hubner; in the male the anal sheath lacks spiculation,the sac- 

 culus emargination is rectangular and the aedeagus is distinctly 

 smaller and without any cornuti." The present author had the op- 

 portimity to examine two males and one female of the species men-
