Type material. Catocala sancta : the original description does not state the number of types. A male type is at the AMNH, and is designated as lectotype to clarify application of the name sancta . Th e lectotype bears the labels “Collection / GDHulst”, “ Catocala / sancta / Type Hulst.” The name sancta was proposed as a replacement name for C. connubialis Guenée, 1852 , which Hulst mistakenly thought was unavailable (see Gall and Hawks 2002b: 257–259 for detailed analysis of the name connubialis ). Type Locality: East and South East [southeastern USA].
