Coff's Butterfly House errors: Part I - S. foveata, C. iostephana, O. ptousalis

MIS-ID

1) "Strepsinoma foveata"

http://lepidoptera.butterflyhouse.com.au/acen/foveata.html

... actually Strepsinoma croesusalis
http://www.inaturalist.org/taxa/519929

2) "Crepidosceles iostephana"
http://lepidoptera.butterflyhouse.com.au/oeco/iostephana.html

does not match BOLD SYSTEMS

http://www.boldsystems.org/index.php/Taxbrowser_Taxonpage?taxid=404159

possibly C. timalphes
http://www.boldsystems.org/index.php/Taxbrowser_Taxonpage?taxid=404160

apparently based on
https://www.flickr.com/photos/7365168@N02/14961735721

location of photo not given but the photographer's other work is from Queensland where
C. timalphes has been taken but not C. iostephana which has a more southerly distribution.

3) "Osiriaca ptousalis"
http://lepidoptera.butterflyhouse.com.au/spil/ptousalis.html
Osiriaca ptousalis

does not match BOLD SYSTEMS specimens of same
http://www.boldsystems.org/index.php/Taxbrowser_Taxonpage?taxon=Osiriaca+ptousalis&searchTax=

and is very likely Ocrasa albidalis ... certainly the image is indistinguishable
from that species.

i Naturalist duplicate taxa: Australian Lepidoptera

Tephrosia externia, http://www.inaturalist.org/taxa/471566

2) Australian Tailed Emperor (Charaxes sempronius), http://www.inaturalist.org/taxa/522099
and
Polyura sempronius, Tailed Emperor ... which is synonymous with Charaxes

ALA ID errors: "Cryptophasa bipunctata"

All images by Ken Harris for

"Cryptophasa bipunctata"
http://bie.ala.org.au/species/urn:lsid:biodiversity.org.au:afd.taxon:44306f22-f393-4c63-babc-e80de790e301#overview

depict a species of Maroga.

Coff's Butterfly House errors: Part 2 - Oxysemaphora, Ophiorrhabda, Trichophysetis

4) "Oxysemaphora hacobiani"
http://lepidoptera.butterflyhouse.com.au/tort/hacobiani.html

does not match any here ...
http://www.boldsystems.org/index.php/TaxBrowser_Taxonpage?taxid=112152

it is Cryptophlebia ombrodelta, Macadamia Nutborer
http://www.boldsystems.org/index.php/Taxbrowser_Taxonpage?taxid=254043

perhaps as a consequence, this error is repeated here
http://www.leapfrogoz.com.au/LeapFrogOz/Tortricidae.html

5) "Ophiorrhabda mormopa" does not match that species in BOLD SYSTEMS
http://www.boldsystems.org/index.php/Taxbrowser_Taxonpage?taxon=Ophiorrhabda+mormopa&searchTax=

where there should be fine filigree in the basal portion of the forewing there is none.

Appears to be consistent with Garella scoparioides
http://www.inaturalist.org/taxa/426013

6) Trichophysetis crocoplaga ... the first image (Ian McMillan) is that of Scenedra decoratalis
http://lepidoptera.butterflyhouse.com.au/cyba/crocoplaga.html

the accompanying image appears correct for T. crocoplaga.
http://www.boldsystems.org/index.php/Taxbrowser_Taxonpage?taxon=+Trichophysetis+crocoplaga&searchTax=

incongruities

1) The entry labeled "Elesma subglauca"

https://www.flickr.com/photos/7365168@N02/15469216718/

is a Calathusa ... likely Calathusa octogesima
http://www.boldsystems.org/index.php/Taxbrowser_Taxonpage?taxid=323793

and is repeated erroneously within ALA
https://bie.ala.org.au/species/urn:lsid:biodiversity.org.au:afd.taxon:e141fa49-de46-475c-b44b-8d8e8056f131

as a consequence, my own Calathusa was mis-ID and appears (as of 28 Jan 2017) within the same ALA entry
for E. subglauca.

2) See other journal post
http://www.inaturalist.org/journal/vicfazio3/8231-coff-s-butterfly-house-errors-part-i-s-foveata-c-iostephana-o-ptousalis

concerning Crepidosceles sp.

3) This "Calamotropha leptogrammellus"
https://www.flickr.com/photos/7365168@N02/15362425279/

is indistinguishable from the tropical Calamotropha delatalis
http://www.boldsystems.org/index.php/Taxbrowser_Taxonpage?taxid=121974

though plausible for a very pale C. leptogramellus

is Mixocera latilineata

The "Oxysemaphora" sp.

is a Macadamia Nutborer, Cryptophlebia ombrodelta.

possible ID of Unknowns
