Trifurcula mediocorsa was described from a male holotype and two male paratypes , and compared with other species in the subgenus Levarchama Beirne, 1945 (now the cryptella species group). The holotype was not sequenced, one of the paratypes gave a full barcode, the other one failed. The barcode has a distance of more than 10% to its nearest neighbour, Trifurcula ortneri (Klimesch, 1951) . The genitalia resemble the other species in this species group (van Nieukerken 2007 ), and more study is needed to define diagnostic characters. This is a potential endemic species for Corsica .
