Description
Genus Exallopyga French
This Neotropical genus contains three valid species: Exallopyga difficilis (Spinola, 1851), E. guatemalensis (Cameron, 1888), and E. jenseni (du Buysson, 1909). There are no records of hosts for this genus. Exallopyga is easily distinguished from other genera of Elampini based on the following combination of unique features: axilla slightly produced into the wing fossa; F1–F5 with distinctly elongated distal sensillae; and the aedeagus of male genitalia with submedial spinose lobe (French 1985, Lucena & Almeida 2022). French (1985) described the genus, revised its species, and provided an identification key and illustrations of diagnostic characters. Only Exallopyga guatemalensis (Cameron) is known from Brazil.
