Samia kasloensis Cockerell, in: Packard, 1914 |
| Taxonomic Notes: |
Hyalophora kasloensis (Cockerell, in: Packard, 1914), previously considered to be a self-sustaining hybrid population that originated from euryalis x gloveri stock in Tuskes et al. (1996), is treated as a valid species by Kitching & Rougerie et al. (2018). The names parvimacula (Grote, 1903) and rubra (Neumögen & Dyar, 1894) were inadvertently listed as synonyms below kasloensis instead of euryalus in Pohl & Nanz (eds.) (2023) (Ryan St Laurent, pers. comm., 28 December 2023) and are here corrected as synonyms of the latter. |
