Camptrodoxa Meyrick, 1925: 3 View in CoL (5): 144.

Type species: Camptrodoxa inclyta Meyrick, 1925 Stenentoma Diakonoff, 1969: 112: 94 . Syn. nov.

Type species Stenentoma chrysolampra Diakonoff, 1969

Diagnosis. In the hindwing the veins Rs and M1 are stalked, as are M3 and CuA1. Male hind tibia with scale brush. The wing pattern consists of a speculum and costal strigulae of which the two apical ones often are accentuated; there are more or less metallic transverse lines and fasciae and yellow suffusion. Male genitalia ( Figures 5–7 View FIGURES 5–8 ). Tegumen very high, gnathos present as slender setose lobes; valva slender, deeply emarginated before cucullus, sacculus long, cucullus short, spiny along apical edge; phallus long and slender, apically tubular.

Female genitalia ( Figure 8 View FIGURES 5–8 ). Ovipositor short, not telescopic; two setose lobes present posterior to ostium; ostium indistinct; ductus bursae without sclerotisations; ductus seminalis originates closer to ostium than to corpus bursae; signa horn-shaped with broad bases.

Remarks. The synonymy of the two genera, Camptrodoxa and Stenentoma , follows from a comparison of genitalia figures in Diakonoff’s description (1969) and material of Camptrodoxa species available in museums or recently collected in Africa. The type species of Stenentoma , S. chrysolampra apparently is closely related to Camptrodoxa plectocosma (Meyrick, 1921) comb. nov. and C. sorindeiae ( Razowski & Brown, 2012) comb. nov. A scan of the original

figure of the male genitalia of S. chrysolampra is shown ( Figure 5 View FIGURES 5–8 ) to enable comparison with the male genitalia of C. plectocosma ( Figure 6 View FIGURES 5–8 ) and C. sorindeiae ( Figure 7 View FIGURES 5–8 ). The generic synonymy introduced here leads to the following new combinations of species described from Aldabra by Diakonoff (1969): Camptrodoxa chrysolampra ( Diakonoff, 1969) comb. nov. and Camptrodoxa onychosema ( Diakonoff, 1969) comb. nov. The latter is rather different from the other species, and may in the future be transferred to another genus. In addition Eucosma bisecta Meyrick, 1918 is transferred to Camptrodoxa : Camptrodoxa bisecta comb. nov. The male holotype from South Africa was dissected and figured by Razowski & Krüger (2007) in the combination Stenentoma bisecta (Meyrick, 1918) . The species is close to C. plectocosma in all aspects. We have not studied the holotype, and there seems not have been collected additional material since the type specimen was found.
