TL;DR: Zale lunifera sensu stricto is the species previously thought to be undescribed; it occurs from the southern Atlantic coastal plain northward to the pine barrens of north-eastern United States.
Abstract: In light of the recent discovery of an unrecognized species within nominal Zale lunifera (Hubner), the taxonomy of Z. lunifera is reassessed. Zale intenta (Walker), stat. rev. is the name that applies to the widespread species previously called Z. lunifera. Zale lunifera sensu stricto is the species previously thought to be undescribed; it occurs from the southern Atlantic coastal plain northward to the pine barrens of north-eastern United States. A diff erential diagnosis and adult illustrations of the two species are given.
TL;DR: Updated checklist of 61 species in 6 tribes and 30 genera of Catocalinae known to exist in Egypt are presented together with notes on their distribution, host records and taxonomical notes.
