Identity:
Scrobipalpa corsicamontes
Varenne & Nel, 2013
Remarks.
Scrobipalpa corsicamontes
was described from two males and two females and randomly compared with
S. voltinella
(Chrétien, 1898) (
Varenne & Nel 2013b
)
. However, the nearest neighbour of the successfully sequenced
holotype
with ca. 6.6% divergence is
S. eremica
Povolný, 1967
, a species known from the Middle East. The systematic position of the species requires further study.
