99. Cydia aff. anaranjada (Miller, 1959) .

Carlin & Nuñez (1985) recorded “ Cydia poss anaranjada ” from Honduras in the mature cones of Pinus oocarpa Schiede ex Schltdl. and Pinus caribaea var. hondurensis (Sénéclauze) W.H.G. Barrett & Gol. They examined 600 cones of each pine species and found infestation rates of 15% for P. caribaea and 6% for P. oocarpa .; no larvae were found in P. maximinoi H. E. Moore. They describe the adult as follows: “The forewing is orange with gold bands. The hindwing is colored like the forewing, but without markings. The hindlegs are white with a large spur.” The adult was determined by H. H. Neunzig but the location of vouchers, if any, are unknown.
