Moved to quadrinotellus

Moved from Fissicrambus profanellus.

Tentative ID, see comments below. Caution is advised for this genus. My understanding is that quadrinotellus is separated from fissiradiellus by genitalia. We do not know how that barcoded specimens were identified.

.

Thank you for catching this. Can't explain my placement. Will check all my personal files and try to get them right.

BOLD is often very late in posting to species what has been proven by the ID Engine, so when I get the COI strings I use the ID Engine to see what it tells me. When it says 100% solid ID, I place it to species.

I see them frequently and will try to post a decent dissection.

Fissicrambus quadrinotellus

This is similar to your BOLD specimen, Sequence ID TXLEP545-18, and nearly identical to your BOLD specimen, Sequence ID TXLEP396-17, both in BIN BOLD:AAH5065:

Your TXLEP396-17 along with six other specimens in BOLD:AAH5065 are identified as F. quadrinotellus by Angela Telfer who I believe is a barcoding expert but I'm not sure she is a crambid expert. The only one not identified by her is your TXLEP545-18 which was identified by yourself. I'm guessing that Telfer based the identifications on one of the specimens which was identified by an expert but that determination was not credited and that you based you ID on the rest.
