Acrolepiopsis persimilis
MORIUTI, 1974
,
stat. rev.
The study of a small series from
Taiwan
shows that the taxon
persimilis
, described by Moriuti in 1974, is not a synonym of
Acrolepiopsis suzukiella
(MATSUMURA, 1931)
, as was published earlier (
GAEDIKE, 1979
). There are clear differences in the
genitalia
structure, especially the size of the small preapical tooth on valva.
Hitherto known only from the locality where the
type
series was collected (
Japan
,
Honshyu
,
Mt. Takaosan
).
Recorded
now for the first time from
