Cyrnopsis hittigegamus Oláh & Johanson 2010, new combination

Description

Cyrnopsis hittigegamus (Schmid), new combination

Nyctiophylax hittigegama Schmid, 1958: 84.

Remarks: Schmid (1958) placed this species in the Nyctiophylax with some hesitation due to its similarity with Hyalopsyche. Malicky & Chantaramongkol (1993) considered Hyalopsychella, now a synonym of Hyalopsyche (Oláh & Johanson, 2009), as a possible alternative genus for Cyrnopsis pingensis Malicky & Chantaramongkol. However, Hyalopsyche species have more complete venation, and are also the species with the simplest venation; the discoidal cell is closed in each hind wing; and the distance between the antennae is narrow in Dipseudopsidae but wide in Cyrnopsis hittigegamus.
