The Sympistis tenuifascia View in CoL group

The S. tenuifascia group is a small subset of the S. badistriga group, in which the corpus bursae is present as a small vestigial polyp on the side of the appendix bursae (Fig. P-6). Included here are Sympistis tenuifascia (Smith) comb. n., Sympistis aterrima (Grote) comb. n., Sympistis parvanigra (Blackmore) comb. n., and Sympistis apep sp. n.. Troubridge and Crabo (1998) were mistaken in the identity of Sympistis tenuifascia comb. n., assigning the wrong Washington species to that taxon. As a result, I synonymize Sympistis mus (Troubridge and Crabo) syn. n. under S. tenuifascia and describe S. apep here.
