| Taxonomic Notes: |
Phalonidia lepidana (Clemens, 1860) [3836] (Hodges et al. (1983) (Checklist)) includes as synonyms plummeriana Busck, 1907 [3843] (1983 list), schwarziana Busck, 1907 [3848] (1983 list), 3809.1 straminiodes Grote, 1873 [3852] (1983 list) and zaracana Kearfott, 1907 [3861] (1983 list) in Brown (2005). Straminiodes is raised to full species status in Metzler & Brown (2014). Michael Sabourin (pers. comm., 10/27/2020) suggests that 3809 ontariana Razowski, 1997 should also be included as a synonym of lepidana and that plummeriana, schwarziana and zaracana should be treated as synonyms of straminiodes. MPG follows this interpretation for identification purposes pending further investigation. |
