Tomeophera piracicabensis (Piza, 1971) View in CoL , sp. dist.

Phaneropterops piracicabensis Piza, 1971 (southeast of Bra-

zil).

Note. This species was erroneously synonymized with T. modesta Brunner-Wattenwyl, 1891 by Chamorro-Rengifo and Braun (2010). Later it was restored from this synonymy ( Gorochov and Cadena-Castañeda 2015), but in OSF, it is considered as a synonym of T. modesta modesta [!] without any ground. However, it is very clearly visible from the photographs of their holotypes (OSF) that tegmina of T. piracicabensis are distinctly wider and with numerous (not less than five) longitudinal pseudoveins in the costal area, but tegmina of T. modesta are clearly narrower and with two longitudinal pseudoveins in this area only.
