43. Melipotis fasciolaris [ MONA 8599 ]
    Similar species:
    1. M. indomita. In M. fasciolaris the base of the hindwing is bright white (below it is white also as is the thorax) whereas in indomita and its many forms it is buffy or dirty white, the third segment of the labial palpus is a little longer than 1/2 as long as the second in indomita and in fasciolaris it is shorter, a little less than 1/2 as long as the second; the white reniform spot is even on the outside in fasciolaris but has two triangular projections in indomta (Don Lafontaine).

50. ! Bulia deducta [ MONA 8614 ]
51. Bulia similaris Richards, 1936 [ MONA 8615 ]
    Pogue and Laughlin. 2002 (J lep Soc 56: 129-150) list two records of this from the Baboquivari Mts.
52. Drasteria eubapta Hampson [ MONA 8617 ]
    Has a mottled orange forewing with a black apical spot and strongly checkered fringe, and the hindwing has a black marginal spot cut off by pale yellow, just like in a Bulia species (Don Lafontaine comment, April 2003)
    Drasteria vs. Synedoida Richards revised this group of genera in 1933 and showed that the spines on the legs (Drasteria) did not form a natural group compared to the unspined forms ( Synedoida) and lumped the two genera. Somehow this was missed by the McDunnough check list (1938) and Franclemont and Todd list (in Hodges et al. 1983). The Europeans have treated them as a single genus for many years. Bob Poole "re-lumped" them in his 1989 world catalog of the Noctuidae. (Don Lafontaine comment, 9 Dec 2004).

56. ! Drasteria nr. ochracea [ MONA 8626 ]
57. ! Drasteria pallescens [ MONA 8628 ]
    Similar species:
    1. Melipotis perlata. In Synedoida the third segment of the labial palpus is short, about 1/4 as long as the second (middle ) segment. This will help separate S. pallescens from Melipotis perlata (the latter also has two white intrusions in the hindwing, one near the middle unlike pallescens). [ Don Lafontaine ]

    1. H. fraterna. mina is larger and browner, However, mima turn out to be the same species as H. fraterna (Don Lafontaine).
66. Heteranassa fraterna [ MONA 8661 ]

75. Matigramma rubrosuffusa [ MONA 8680 ]
    Similar species:
    There are four Matigramma's in AZ after Franclemonts revision of the genus (Jour. Kansas Ent. Soc. 59(1): 143-172.). They are all best identified by good differences in the genitalia but I have sorted out 4 drawers of the genus and color trends are apparent and allow most things to be names -WITH PRACTISE! Two species are basically gray-brown, reptina, with more crisply marked lines is only in SE AZ and is very rare; and inopinata (blackish gray, SE AZ to W TX) is the common one. Two species are reddish brown, rubrosuffusa is common only in eastern (White Mountains) and central (Prescott area, Flagstaff) AZ (very rare in SE AZ) and the similar emmilta is common from SE AZ to West TX (Don Lafontaine).

    Ferris comments that "Apparently some years ago, Lloyd Martin told Ron Leuschner that the moth does not belong in Lacinipolia and probably belongs in the Orthodes area. I concur. Selman did not include the species in his Lacinipolia revision. I have brushed away the terminal abdominal scales in the specimen that I have from Noel, and the genitalia clearly don't belong to a Lacinipolia. The moth superficially resembles Hexorthodes [formerly Polia] tuana, but the genitalia are quite different. Poole missed this one and retained it in Lacinipolia in his "Catalogus."
