Identity.
Ancylis apicella

Denis and Schiffermüller, 1775

(

Remarks.
Fabricius first described this species as
Pyralis leeana
(
Fabricius 1776: 292
)
, but renamed it
P. plumbana
with a note to his description of
P. leeana
(
Fabricius 1787: 225
)
, apparently because the name
leeana
was reserved for another species (see
leeana
above). The synonymy was proposed correctly by Werneburg (1848: 538), together with
Pyralis leeana
Fabricius.
