Examined material. Holotype Ƌ: France , Hautes-Alpes, La Grave , 7.V.2008 ( RCTV ). BOLD Specimen ID TLMF 22311; BOLD Sequence ID LEASS663-17. BIN: BOLD:ADL9611 Identity: Hyperlais rosseti Varenne, 2009 , identity uncertain. Remarks. Hyperlais rosseti was described from four males and three females and compared particularly with the related H. siccalis (Guenée, 1854) and H. nemausalis (Duponchel, 1834) ( Varenne 2009 ) . The successfully sequenced holotype is ca. 5% divergent from the nearest neighbour in BOLD, an unnamed species. However, the majority of Hyperlais have not been barcoded so far. Leraut (2012) discussed an eventual conspecitify with H. dulcinalis (Treitschke, 1835) and H. glyceralis (Staudinger, 1859) with subspecific status, but both species lack DNA barcodes.
