Revision of mimallonid hosts (Lepidoptera: Mimallonidae) of tachinid flies (Diptera: Tachinidae), including a new host record in the Amazon rainforest

Mimallonid moths, also known as sack-bearer moths, are a small family of Lepidoptera restricted to the New World. Although there have been recent improvements and clarifications in the taxonomy of Mimallonidae species, little is known about their life history and the parasitoids associated with them. Here, we record for the first time the mimallonid species Psychocampa concolor Grote and Robinson as the host of the tachinid Archytas araujoi Guimarães, in the Amazon rainforest of Macapá, state of Amapá, Brazil. The taxonomy of A. araujoi is discussed and notes and illustrations of the immature stages and adults of P. concolor are provided. Additionally, we present a revision of mimallonid hosts of Tachinidae in an annotated host catalog, including an overview of the host use and oviposition strategies of their respective parasitoids.
