14 Catasticta apaturina Butler, 1901 (TL: Ecuador, [Cotopaxi] Angamarca)

(fig. 10: a-c; fig. 25)

Prior to the present study, Catasticta apaturina was not reported from Venezuela. However, we obtained a few specimens from El Tamá at 2300–2800 m elevation, where they are quite scarce. These specimens belong to Catasticta apaturina subturina Reissinger, 1972 (TL: Colombia, Muzo) from the Central and Eastern Colombian Cordilleras ( Bollino & Rodríguez, 2004).
