NO. 3561 LOXOSTEGE—CAPPS 11 
Remarxs.—Although no females of boliviensis are available, no 
other closely related species was noted in the material examined 
from Bolivia. There should be no difficulty in associating the sexes 
when females become available. 
Loxostege saltensis, new species 
Figures 69, 114 
Femate (fig. 114).—Alar expanse 23 mm. Frons conical. Similar 
in color and maculation to pelotasalis, but saltensis is larger and termi- 
nation of posterior transverse line is farther inward on inner margin. 
Genitalia (fig. 69): ductus bursae with a rather broad, collarlike 
expansion between constriction near middle and origin of the ductus 
seminalis. 
TypE.—Female, U.S. National Museum, USNM 67599, genitalia 
slide HWC 10,041. 
TYPE-LOCALITY.—Salta, Argentina. 
Foop pLtant.—Unknown. 
Remarks.—The species is known only from the type; configuration 
of the ductus bursae between the ostium and the origin of the ductus 
seminalis is diagnostic for the female. There is no date of collection 
on the label to indicate time of flight. 
Loxostege fordi, new species 
Ficures 18, 84, 107 
Mate (fig. 107).—Alar expanse 18-20 mm. Frons_ conical. 
Antenna with cilia short, length one-half or less than one-half as long 
as width of shaft. Midtibia incrassate, hair-pencil present. Outer 
spur minute, about one-fifth as long as inner spur. Color and 
maculation like that of helvialis. 
Genitalia (fig. 18): Harpe with a small cluster of digitate setae 
arising from oblique, ridgelike modification near middle of harpe; 
distal termination of modification broadly rounded, padlike, and 
scobinate; sacculus with two groups of spines, the outer composed of 
a rather dense patch of subequal spines, inner of one to three rather 
stout spines. Aedeagus without cornutus. 
Fremate.—Alar expanse 17-20 mm. Similar to male in color and 
maculation. Outer spur distinctly less than one-half as long as 
inner spur. Genitalia (fig. 84) with sclerotization below ventral 
margin of ostium crinkled, median production narrow. 
Typrz.—Male, U.S. National Museum, USNM 67600, genitalia slide
