Agonocryptus chichimecus discoidaloides: Gupta, 1982 View in CoL . New status, description, male and female, keyed.

Agonocryptus chichimecus discoidaloides: Yu et al., 2016 View in CoL . Catalog.

Variation. Intercubiti about same size (vs. first intercubitus shorter than second); second recurrent vein meeting areolet at its middle ( Fig. 5A View FIGURE 5 ) (vs. apical 0.3–0.4); hind wing nervellus intercepted a little bellow middle (vs. at middle).

Comments. Differently from all other species in the genus, which are from Central and South America, all the examined specimens of the exclusively Nearctic A. discoidaloides are quite uniform in color, without relevant variation.

Distribution. United States (Alabama, Arkansas NR, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Iowa NR, Kansas, Louisiana, Maryland, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska NR, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Tenessee, Texas, Virginia, West Virginia, Wisconsin) ( Fig. 18J View FIGURE 18 ).

So far, this is the Agonocryptus species most strictly found in low altitudes, typically observed around 100 m ( Fig. 21A View FIGURE 21 ).

Material examined. Total of 40 specimens, 25♀, 15 ♂.
