Lophocampa oblita explained

Lophocampa oblita is a moth of the family Erebidae described by Benoit Vincent in 2009. It was described by Max Gaede in 1923 under the name Halisidota fasciata. It is found in Bolivia.[1]

Taxonomy

Since L. fasciata is preoccupied by Euhalisidota fasciata, described by Augustus Radcliffe Grote in 1867, Lophocampa oblita was proposed by Vincent in 2009 as the replacement name.[2]
