Mictopsichia Hübner, [1825] 1816, Verz. Bekannter Schmett.: 374.

Type species: Tortrix hubneriana Stoll in Cramer, 1791, Papillons Exotiques (suppl.): 41.

As recently re-defined by Razowski (2009), Mictopsichia includes 20 described species ranging from Mexico to Brazil; two new species are described herein, bringing the total to 22. The only clue to larval host plants are the label data on four specimens of Mictopsichia gemmisparsana (Walker) (USNM) indicating that they were reared from Vitis vinifera L. ( Vitaceae) in Venezuela. Adults are presumed to be diurnal, and this is supported by limited field observations in Costa Rica.
