Diagnosis.— Hypatopa solea is similar to H. bilobata in facies but differs from the latter by having a shorter and apically wider uncus; a less anteriorly directed gnathos; and a smaller apical process of the ventral part of the valva. H. solea also has a mesially emarginate ventroposterior margin of the gnathos; a nearly straight digitate process of the dorsal part of the valva; an oblique lateral margin of the proximal flange of the dorsal part of the valva; an apically bifurcate sclerite of the phallus, forming two elongate, porrect processes; and an anellus that is widely and deeply emarginate mesially, forming two large, broadly rounded, setose, lateral lobes that are lacking in H. bilobata .
Description.—Head: Scales on vertex and frontoclypeus grayish brown tipped with pale grayish brown. Outer and inner surfaces of labial palpus with segment 1 brown, segment 2 brown intermixed with pale-brown scales along apical margin, segment 3 brown intermixed with pale-brown scales. Antennal scape brown intermixed with few dark-brown scales, pecten brown, flagellum with basal 1/2 gray, apical 1/2 pale brown. Proboscis grayish brown.
Thorax: Tegula brown or with basal 1/2 brown, apical 1/2 pale brown; mesonotum brown. Legs dark brown intermixed with pale-brown scales near midsegments and along apical margins of all segments and tarsomeres. Forewing ( Fig. 399 View FIGURES 392 – 399 ): Length 5.0–6.9 mm (n = 12), brown intermixed with pale-brown scales and few dark-brown scales or dark brown intermixed with brown and few pale-brown scales; one pale brown, obliquely arched spot arising from posterior margin near 1/3; marginal spots faint or absent. Undersurface brown. Venation ( Fig. 43 View FIGURES 41 – 50 ) with M3 and CuA1 arising from a common point on distoposterior part of cell; M2 approximate to M1; cubital veins divergent from bases with CuA1 straight and CuA2 broadly curved. Hindwing: Translucent pale brown. Venation ( Fig. 43 View FIGURES 41 – 50 ) with cubitus 4-branched; M2 arising 1/2 distance between distoposterior part of cell and branching point of M3 and CuA1.

Abdomen: Male genitalia ( Figs. 225–226 View FIGURES 225 – 230 ): Uncus near parallelsided from wide base, narrowly rounded apically, straight, sparsely setose, shorter than width of anal opening. Gnathos narrow, anteriorly directed band, confluent with tegumen; ventroposterior margin slightly protuberant mesially, forming narrowly emarginate lobe. Sockets of tergal setae not extending beyond midlength of tegumen. Valva divided; ventral part basally protracting inwardly, slightly widened to middle, near parallelsided to base of inwardly curved, apical process; process setose on outer surface, planate on inner surface; ventral margin setose, with small, abruptly protuberant ridge at base of apical process; dorsal part with apical portion of costa extending dorsolaterally, forming setose digitate process; basal ridge of digitate process extending ventrally fusing with dorsolateral ridge of proximal flange; flange subquadrilateral (with opposing sides near equal and parallel), protracted ventrolaterally, with broadly rounded apical margin, sparsely microtrichiate on basal 1/2, setose on apical 1/2; margin shallowly crenulate. Juxta bandlike. Vinculum semicircular. Phallus straight, slightly bulbous basally, longer than valva; sclerite of phallus longer than valva, acutely curved at 2/3, bifurcate apically forming two elongate, spinelike, porrect processes; anellus widely and deeply emarginate mesially, forming two large, broadly rounded, setose lateral lobes. Female Genitalia: Unknown.

Distribution (Map 47). Hypatopa solea is known from two collecting sites; one on the western most part of the Cordillera de Guanacaste, and one on the Cordillera de Tilarán in western Costa Rica.
Etymology. The specific epithet solea is derived from the Latin solum meaning, a leather sole strapped on the foot, a sandal.
