Thiodia tscheliana
(
Caradja, 1928
)
Semasia tscheliana
Caradja 1928: 292
. TL:
China
: Mountains west of
Beijing
.
Distribution.
China
. Record of this species from
Romania
(
Obraztsov 1964: 151
; Razowski 1996: 146, 1999: 44, 2003: 61) is based on incorrect interpretation of
type
locality of
S. tscheliana
. The species was described from single male collected in “Mountains west of Beijing” (
Caradja 1928: 361
, 388, 392), but not from
Romania
(see also
Lepiforum 2022
).
Caradja (1928: 392)
indicated affinity of
S. tscheliana
to
Th. anatoliana
and
Th. placidana
.
Obraztsov (1964: 151)
transferred
S. tscheliana
in “species incertae sedis” within
Thiodia
but gave no details supporting this decision. The systematic position of the species is uncertain until
type
remains unexamined.
