Larval host plant(s): Brachypodium sp., B. pinnatum (L.) Beauv., B. sylvaticum (Hudson) Beauv. , Dactylis glomerata L., Melica nutans L. (all Poaceae ) ( Stainton 1858a ; Steuer 1973 ; Beiger 1979 ; Langohr 1979 ; Buszko 1990a ; Agassiz et al . 1992 ). Figs.: Traugott-Olsen & Nielsen (1977) , Biesenbaum (1995) , Bland (1996) . Remarks: Bradley (1963: 152) states that a male specimen from the Zeller collection from ’Schneebg’ [ Austria : Schneeberg] is the holotype of E. gangabella . This is not in accordance with Zeller’s (1850) original statement of the type locality ( Italy , Pisa). Therefore, Parenti’s (1977: 27) lectotype designation stands.
