Genus Tigrioides Butler, 1877 does not occur in New Guinea,
a revision of the taxa concerned from New Guinea with four new genera and nine new species (Lepidoptera: Erebidae, Arctiinae, Lithosiini)

Abstract: Six species from New Guinea which previously were placed in the genus Tigrioides Butler, 1877 are transferred to five genera of which four new to science: Chionatosia gen. nov., Parapelosia Bethune-Baker, 1908, Lithopelosia gen. nov., Blavipelosia gen. nov. and Eugopelosia gen. nov. Nine species have been discovered new to science: Blavipelosia tenebris spec. nov., B. staatsi spec. nov., B. habbemaensis spec. nov., B. armata spec. nov., Eugopelosia gaedei spec. nov., E. obscura spec. nov., E. transnovaguinea spec. nov., E. milnensis spec. nov. and E. nana spec. nov.
Tigrioides costaepunctata f. inversa Gaede, 1925 is an infraspecific and therefore invalid name for what appears to be a new species: Eugopelosia gaedei spec. nov.
The species are described and the adults and genitalia depicted.
