expand Abstract

The Archipini fauna of the Caribbean is revised to include 33 species. Most previously described species occurring in the region are redescribed and figured, with 13 new species:Argyrotaenia brownisp. nov.,A. crypticasp. nov.(includingA. c. crypticassp. nov.andA. c. praeteritanassp. nov.),A. paradiseisp. nov.,A. razowskianasp. nov.,Claduncaria rawlinsanasp. nov.,Cla. praedictanasp. nov.,Cla. tainosp. nov.,Clepsis davisisp. nov.,Cle. deronisp. nov.,Cle. jamesstewartisp. nov.,Cle. peroniaesp. nov.,Mictocommosis lesleyaesp. nov., andMictopsichia nyhllindasp. nov.Three new combinations are proposed:Claduncaria mesosignaria(Razowski, 1999),comb. nov.(includingArgyrotaenia thamaluncusRazowski, 1999,syn. nov.),Claduncaria minisignaria(Razowski, 1999),comb. nov., andCladuncaria chalarostium(Razowski &amp; Becker, 2000b),comb. nov.,stat. nov.Argyrotaenia granpiedraeRazowski &amp; Becker, 2010 is reduced to subspecies rank underArgyrotaenia ceramicaRazowski, 1999, resulting inArgyrotaenia ceramica granpiedraeRazowski &amp; Becker, 2010,stat. nov.Four new synonymies are proposed:Clepsis labiscleraRazowski &amp; Becker, 2010,syn. nov.as junior synonym ofCladuncaria maestranaRazowski &amp; Becker, 2010;Clepsis pinariaRazowski &amp; Becker, 2010,syn. nov.as junior synonym ofClepsis peritana(Clemens, 1860); andArgyrotaenia neibanaRazowski, 1999,syn. nov.andA. ochrochroaRazowski, 1999syn. nov.as junior synonyms ofArgyrotaenia amatana(Dyar, 1901). Males ofArgyrotaenia felisanaRazowski, 1999,A. nuezanaRazowski, 1999, andCladuncaria minisignaria(Razowski, 1999),comb. nov.are described for the first time; females ofArgyrotaenia jamaicana(Razowski &amp; Becker, 2000a) andCladuncaria ochrochlaena(Razowski, 1999) are described for the first time. The concept ofCladuncariais expanded and its diagnosis is modified to more clearly define its generic boundaries. A unique external sexual coupling mechanism inCladuncariais discussed. Keys to the genera and species of Caribbean Archipini, distribution maps, a regional checklist, and Neighbor-joining and Maximum Likelihood trees based on COI barcode data are provided. Phylogenetic relationships among Caribbean Archipini are briefly discussed.
