Revision of the genus Menevia Schaus, 1928 (Lepidoptera, Mimallonoidea, Mimallonidae) with the description of 11 new species

The Neotropical genus Menevia Schaus, 1928 is revised to include 18 species, 11 of which are new. Two species, M. ostia comb. n. and M. parostia comb. n. are transferred from Pamea Walker, 1855 to Menevia. Four species-groups are diagnosed for the first time based on external characters and male genitalia morphology. The following new species are described: M. rosea sp. n., M. torvamessoria sp. n., M. magna sp. n., M. menapia sp. n., M. mielkei sp. n., M. australis sp. n., M. vulgaris sp. n., M. franclemonti sp. n., M. vulgaricula sp. n., M. cordillera sp. n., and M. delphinus sp. n.. A neotype is designated for Mimallo plagiata Walker, 1855, which has since been placed in Menevia. Mimallo saturata Walker, 1855 is interpreted to be a nomen dubium.
