91. Crocidosema aff. monias Razowski & Becker 2017 .

We examined a male and a female of a eucosmine with mostly green forewing maculation. The male genitalia are similar to those illustrated by Razowski & Becker (2017) for Crocidosema monias , and the DNA barcode (JWB-22-005) was a 100% match with “ Epinotia BioLep 164” of BOLD, from Costa Rica. However, the female genitalia do not match those of this species. Hence, we are uncertain whether our male and female represent different species, or if they are not C. monias .

Specimens examined: Honduras: Dept. Olancho, La Murralla, Centro de visit. 1421 m, 15.0821, -86.7410, 8–10 May 2021 (1♂, 1♀), blacklight, E. van den Berghe ( EAP) GoogleMaps .
