NOMENCLATORIAL NOTES ON AGROTIS OBESULA AND AGROTIPHILA (LEPIDOPTERA: NOCTUIDAE)
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 31 May 2012
Abstract
Agrotis obesula Smith is synonymous with the European Agrotis trux Hübner. Because of the fact that it was based on a "misidentified" type species, Agrotiphila Grote should be construed as a senior synonym of Agrotimorpha Barnes and Benjamin, and not of Orosagrotis Hampson.
