“…Two species were identified based on the samples analyzed: Epanycles imperialis and Episcepsis satania. Epanycles imperialis is known to occur in French Guiana, Venezuela, Brazil, Peru, Bolivia (Grados, 1999;Cerda, 2017;Araujo et al, 2019) and has also been reported in Mexico, Guatemala and Costa Rica (Hampson, 1898;Turren-Díaz & Pescador, 2013;Draudt, 1916;Araujo et al, 2019). E. satania new.…”

The genus Epanycles Butler (Lepidoptera: Erebidae: Arctiinae: Ctenuchina) has been considered as monotypical for 145 years, including only Epanycles imperialis (Walker). Herein, we propose a new combination: E. satania new. comb. based on external morphology, genital morphology of males and females, morphological phylogeny, DNA barcoding, and geographical distribution. Epanycles satania was originally described for the genus Episcepsis Butler.

Polylepis forests are home to endemic species and are of great ecological importance. The degradation of these forests, a remarkable and unique biome in the Andean region, might cause severe consequences for the yet poorly studied high-altitude biota. In the context of Global Climate Change and other anthropogenic impacts, such as habitat loss and species invasion, the threat in this region is alarming. Therefore, studies informing about fauna and flora in this area are essential for conservation efforts and political decisions. In this study, we performed an inventory of three nocturnal Lepidoptera taxa (Sphingidae, Saturniidae, and Arctiinae) in Polylepis forests of the Huascarán National Park. The Huascarán National Park is a reserve in the Ancash region in the Andean zone of Peru. The specimens were collected using mixed light traps, from 18:00 to 24:00 hours in November (2015), February (2016), May (2016), and August (2016). We recorded seven species and 155 individuals, corresponding to two species of Sphingidae, one of Saturniidae, and four of Arctiinae. All the species presented are new records for the Huascarán National Park, three are new records for the department of Ancash and one new record for Peru.

The hostplant, Schinus molle L. (Anacardiaceae) and the last instar of the Arctiinae Amastus walkeri (Rothschild, 1922) are reported for the first time. Several caterpillars with abundant setae and gregarious behavior, were observed feeding on the leaves of Schinus molle L. in the department of Arequipa, southwestern Peru. Ten caterpillars were collected and raised in laboratory condition. Two adults were recovered. According to the external morphology of the adults, they correspond to the species identified as Amastus walkeri (Rothschild).
