Hypena vetustalis. Reported from Florida by Dickel (1991) and Texas by Knudson and Bordelon (2004), however the specimens have been reidentified as Hypena annulalis (Grote) by comparison with the types of H. annulalis and H. vetustalis in the BMNH. Specimens of real Hypena vetustalis were collected by T. Dickel in southern Florida. Generic combination from Poole (1989).
