Heteroceres Nouveaux de L'Amerique du Sud

By Paul Dognin
Imprimerie Oberthur, 1910

Dognin's "New Moths of South America" was published in French in two dozen fascicles over the period 1910 to 1923. An online and downloadable volume of the original fascicles is available from Biodiversity Heritage Library starting here. The higher taxonomy (genera, families) is long out of date and there is apparently no index to species.
