52. Amorbia concavana (Zeller, 1877) View in CoL ( Figs. 18–20 View FIGURES 17–24 ).

Phillips-Rodriguez & Powell (2007) recorded A. concavana from Mexico, Cuba, Guatemala, Honduras, Costa Rica, and Panama. The Honduran records were from Lago Yojoa and Lancetilla in June and July, respectively. Hayden (2012) and Heppner (2013a) illustrated the adult morphology including the head, variation in the forewing pattern, and genitalia of both sexes. Heppner (2013a) referred to this species as the “tropical garden leafroller” and noted captures in pheromone traps for Spodoptera litura , as did Hayden (2012).
