Discussion

This article systematizes the taxonomic and faunistic data of the genus Psychonoctua , widespread in North and South America, and the monotypic genus Schreiteriana . The authors' work is a continuation of the revision on Zeuzerinae of the New World, based on the study of typical and additional materials, the intermediate result of which will be the creation of a catalog of Zeuzerinae in the world fauna.
