Abstract
Abstract. The Euxesta sororcula species group, which contains several pests of corn, is reviewed based on study of type and newly collected specimens. A new synonymy is proposed: Euxesta obliquestriata Hendel, 1909 = Euxesta mazorca Steyskal, 1974, syn. nov. Euxesta sororcula (Wiedemann, 1830), previously known from South and Central America as a pest of sweet corn, is here reported for the first time in the United States, in the state of Texas. Illustrations of and a key to the species of the E. sororcula species group are provided.
期刊介绍:
The Pan-Pacific Entomologist (ISSN 0031-0603) is published quarterly (January, April, July and October) by the Pacific Coast Entomological Society, in cooperation with the California Academy of Sciences. The journal serves as a refereed publication outlet and accepts manuscripts on all aspects of the biosystematics of insects and closely related arthropods, especially articles dealing with their taxonomy, biology, behavior, ecology, life history, biogeography and distribution. Membership in the Pacific Coast Entomological Society includes subscription to The Pan-Pacific Entomologist, and Society Proceedings typically appear in the October issue of each volume.
