Abstract
AbstractA key, based on morphological characters of adult males, separating six traditionally recognized conifer-feeding Choristoneura species, C. pinus Freeman, C. lambertiana (Busck), C. fumiferana (Clemens), C. occidentalis Freeman, C. biennis Freeman, and C. orae Freeman occurring in Canada and Alaska is provided and illustrated. The newly discovered morphological features, the aedeagus of C. fumiferana and C. pinus with a short apical spine and with many microscopic spicules on the distal half, are used to separate these two species from their western allies C. occidentalis, C. biennis and.C. orae.
