Mimallonidae Burmeister 1878

Description

Family Mimallonidae

Nomenclature follows St Laurent and Cock (2017).

Cicinnus sp.

Cicinnus sp.: St Laurent and Cock (2017)

This does not match any species known from Trinidad, and may be undescribed. However, the two specimens available are so badly damaged by psocids that fresh material will be needed to take this further. An attempt to obtain a DNA barcode was not successful.

Englishman’s Bay, at light: 2♂ (bad psocid damage) Jun–Dec 2009 (J. Ingraham) [M. Kelly photos 11609 et seq.; UWIZM 2015.45.138-139]

Mimallo amilia (Stoll, 1780)

Mimallo amilia (Stoll): St Laurent and Cock (2017)

Identified by comparison with the NHMUK series.

Speyside, MVL: ♂ 14–17 May 1982 (M.J.W. Cock) [MJWC]; Englishman’s Bay, at light: ♂ Jun–Dec 2009 (J. Ingraham) [UWIZM 2015.45.140]
