Type material.— Tortrix cratista Walsingham, 1914 : Syntype, ♀: GUATE- MALA: Totonicapam : 8,500-10,500 ft., viii 1880, G. C. Champion [photograph examined]. Razowski genitalia slide #5366. B[ritish] M[useum] genitalia slide #7856 [photograph examined] ( BMNH). Syntype, Ơ: GUATEMALA: same data as female [photograph examined]. Razowski genitalia slide #5365. B.M. genitalia slide #7855 [photograph examined] ( BMNH).

Discussion.— Tortrix cratista was described by Walsingham (1914) from male and female cotypes without holotype designation. Walsingham noted that the female has the “central portion of the hindwings... bright ochreous” whereas the male has this portion white. Therefore, we interpret the specimen figured on Table IX to be the female and the male to be unfigured. The female syntype in the BMNH has a red holotype label affixed to it, but does not appear to have this designation published. For these two reasons, we choose to designate the female as the lectotype and the male as a paralectotype.
