Ancylolomia Hubner 1825

Ancylolomia Hübner, 1825 Ancylolomia Hübner, 1825 n: 363. Type species: Tinea palpella Denis & Schiffermüller, 1775 = Acylolomia Hampson, 1919 b: 143 = Jartheza Walker, 1863 b: 183. Type species: Chilo chrysographellus Kollar, [1844] 1848 = Tollia Amsel, 1949 b: 280. Type species: Crambus pectinatellus Zeller, 1847. DIAGNOSIS Ancylolomia was revised by Bleszynski (1970b); however, he did not provide a definition of the genus. A definition is provided by Bassi (2013). Ancylolomia can be recognized by the following characters of the forewing: ground color pale brown with longitudinal tawny stripes often with dark brown and silver shiny scales; subterminal line shiny silver, rather straight; submarginal row of brown to grey spots; in many species termen concave near M1-M2. Male genitalia have the following characters: uncus beak-shaped, relatively short, in some species with dorsal horns, apex pointing downwards; gnathos slightly longer than uncus, beak-shaped, apex pointing upwards; phallus with ductus ejaculatorius at anterior end of phallus (Landry, 1995; Léger et al., 2019; pers. obs.). Female genitalia with papillae anales not coalesced dorsally and ventrally; posterior and anterior apophyses very short; sterigma present; ductus bursae very short, often with small scattered sclerites, barely demarcated from corpus bursae in most species; corpus bursae elongate, without signa (Bassi, 2013; Bleszynski, 1970a; pers. obs.). DISTRIBUTION Known from the Afrotropical, Palearctic, Oriental, and Australasian regions. Three species are reported from the Philippines: Ancylolomia chrysographellus (Kollar & Redtenbacher, 1844), Ancylolomia orchidea Bleszynski, 1970, and Ancylolomia westwoodi Zeller, 1863. PHYLOGENETIC RELATIONSHIPS Ancylolomia belongs to the Ancylolomiini (Léger et al., 2019).
