disputabilis Obraztsov, 1963 (Acleris)
Type locality: Holotype: Goldstream, BC.ferruginiguttana of authors; (not Fernald, 1882) (Teras) misappl.
Type locality: Colorado. |
| Taxonomic Notes: |
Acleris disputabilis Obraztsov, 1963, listed a synonym of Acleris nigrolinea (Robinson, 1869) in the Hodges et al. (1983) (Checklist), is regarded as a valid species in Powell & Opler (2009:144). McDunnough (1934) believed that the name ferruginiguttana Fernald, 1882 referred to a western variety of nigrolinea. Since ferruginiguttana was known only from a single specimen in such poor condition that it was no longer identifiable, the name was regarded by Obraztsov (1963) as a "species dubia" and described disputabilis as a replacement name for ferruginiguttana sensu McDunnough (1934). |
