RESUMO
Egg, first larval stage and female genitalia of the moth Chabuata castanea (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae). Egg, first larval stage, and female genitalia of the widely distributed moth Chabuata castanea are described, based on material from Talcahuano, VIII region, Chile. Egg microestructures are illustrated with scannig electron microscope images which show that egg morphology allows identification to species level. Rev. Biol. Trop. 55 (2): 659-664. Epub 2007 June, 29.
Se describe el huevo, larva de primer estadio y aparato genital de la hembra de Chabuata castanea con material proveniente de Talcahuano, VIII región, Chile y de huevos obtenidos en laboratorio. Se fotografiaron los huevos con microscopia electrónica de barrido para analizar las variaciones entre micropila, celdas primarias y secundarias, concluyéndose que las diferencias permiten una identificación al nivel de especie.

Four new species of Scriptania Hampson (Hadeninae) (3 spp.) and Pseudoleucania Staudinger (1 sp.) (Noctuinae), are described. Female Scriptania lucens Köhler are described and a new geographical record for the species is added; Strigania demerodes (Dyar) n. comb. is reexamined, and the synonymy and morphological variation of male genitalia of Strigania lithophilus (Butler) are given.
