MICROLEPIDOPTERA OF JUAN FERNANDEZ ISLANDS — CLARKE 27 



Distribution: Masatierra: Bahia Cumberland, ScTcf , 6 99 (Feb. 

 15 to Mar. 3, 1951; Dec. 27, 1954 to Mar. 10, 1955); Plazoleta del 

 Yunque, 200-220 m., ScTcT, 9 (Jan. 2, 1952, Dec. 28, 1954, Mar. 3, 

 1955) ; Villagra, 2cf'cf (Feb. 21, 1951). 



Aurivillius described this species from two female specimens but he 

 failed to designate a type. When the two were examined recently, 

 one lacked the abdomen; the one with the abdomen was selected as 

 the lectotype. 



Figures 21-22. — Juania annulata Aurivillius: 21, ventral view of male genitalia with left 

 harpe and aedeagus removed; 21a, aedeagus; 22, ventral view of female genitalia. 



There is considerable variation in the intensity of the markings of 

 annulata and the size varies from 17 to 21 mm. The original figure 

 of the wings is an excellent representation of the average specimen, 

 and the genitalia leave no doubt about the identity of the variable 

 examples. The male genitalia are figured from a specimen from 

 Villagra (shde 10260) and the female genitaha from a specimen from 

 Bahla Cumberland (slide 10259).
