Maricopa lativittella ( Ragonot, 1887) (Not figured)

Ciris lativittella Ragonot 1887: 18 .

Diagnosis. The male genitalia are rather similar to those of Macrorrhinia species except for a differently shaped sternum 8. The female ductus bursae has 4–5 large coils, and the corpus bursae is ovoid and small relative to the wide ductus bursae, without signa. Illustrations of the genitalia are in Heinrich (1956).
