Source-derived summary

Urgedra pavimenta is a species of moth in the family Notodontidae. It was first described by the French entomologist Paul Dognin in 1910. The species is known to occur in central Colombia, where it inhabits montane and cloud forest regions.

Taxonomy

Gaede treated it as a synonym of Urgedra striata in 1934, but it was resurrected to full species status in 2011.

Editorial summary

The public source identifies “Urgedra pavimenta” as species of insect. This brief keeps that definition visible, then builds a research path around Urgedra, pavimenta and species.

Editorial reviewUseful for establishing the present vocabulary of the subject while preserving a route back to the evidence on which that vocabulary rests. The current lead gives the account dated anchors—1910, 1934, 2011—that can be checked directly. The selected authority fields contribute no independent date. Its value is orientation rather than verdict, with Urgedra, pavimenta and species providing the first useful test.
Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

A short description can identify a subject without explaining its stakes. For “Urgedra pavimenta”, the useful work is to connect “species of insect” to the records capable of establishing context and consequence.

Evidence profile

Datasets, specimens, observations and peer-reviewed methods provide the appropriate test for the technical claims summarized here. The source revision retrieved here is dated Jul 23, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q13481600. None of the 0 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 1910, 1934 and 2011.

Critical limits

Scientific names, classifications and consensus can change while older terminology persists in catalogues and historical literature. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
