Teulisna Walker 1862

Subgenus Teulisna Walker, 1862 Diagnosis. The forewing ground colour is ochreous or pale brown in most species, with a large blackish medial spot (Figs 11, 12; also illustrated by Holloway (2001)). The male genitalia of the nominate subgenus (Fig. 98; also illustrated by Holloway (2001)) are characterised by the combination of the following features. (1) The caulis is broad plate-like. (2) The intravincular sclerotisations and caselli are fully developed. (3) The basis valvae is framed by the jugum basalis. (4) The lamella centralis is displaced proximally and bilobate with the dorsal (proximal) lobe situated at the dorsal corner of the base of the valva replacing the costa, and bears pseudoampulla, which may be erroneously considered as a costal process due to its placement. (5) The phallus is tubular and bears carinal process(es) in many species. The female genitalia of the nominate subgenus (Fig. 150) display no fundamental differences from other subgenera. Note. The subgenus is under revision by Volynkin & Černý (in prep.).
