A REVIEW OF THE GENUS HAIMBACHIA DYAR 



WITH DESCRIPTIONS OF NEW SPECIES 



(LEPIDOPTERA: CRAMBIDAE) 



%IIahn W. Capps^ 



The purpose of this paper is threefold : to redefine the moth genus 

 Haimhachia; to correct several errors in the Dyar and Heinrich treat- 

 ment in 1927 (Proc. U.S. Nat. Mus., vol. 71, pp. 32-37) ; and to provide 

 names for some undescribed species represented by material that has 

 been in the collection of the U.S. National Museum for many years. 



All of the illustrations were prepared by Mr. A. D. Cushman, 

 scientific illustrator of the U.S. Department of Agriculture, except 

 figures l-2b, 6-9, and 25-30, which are those drawn by Miss E. T. 

 Armstrong and used in the Dyar and Heinrich paper of 1927. All of 

 the male genitalia are shown with the aedeagus removed and some 

 with the left harpe, vinculum, gnathos, and uncus also removed. 

 The figures with the vinculum are in ventral view; those of the removed 

 left harpe depict a lateral view of the inner surface, and all of the 

 aedeagi are in lateral view. In the female genitalia, the ovipositor 

 and collar of the eighth segment are shown in lateral view; the ventral 

 tonguelike projection from the collar and seventh segment are shown 

 somewhat flattened to give a ventral or three-quarter view of the distal 

 end of the projection and genital opening, but there are a few 

 exceptions.
