03CC87D5B253DF0DFF36F9CCFEFB8D88.taxon	discussion	Remarks. Stigmella cyrneorolandi was described from a male holotype and compared with Stigmella rolandi and other species in the S. sanguisorbae group. We obtained a short sequence of 307 bp that is more than 99 % similar to most specimens of S. rolandi, that all fall in the same BIN. The described difference is mainly in the tip of the valvae, that may be either damaged or deformed in the Corsican specimen (we did not study the slide). The description did not mention the important character of male S. rolandi, the very long hairpencil on the hindwing and the associated groove in the forewing underside scaling (van Nieukerken 1990), but the upperside photo just shows some of the long hairs extending beyond the right forewing. We consider S. cyrneorolandi as synonym of S. rolandi. This species is widespread in the southern half of Europe from Spain eastwards to west Siberia. It also occurs on Sardinia.	en	Huemer, Peter, Van Nieukerken, Erik J. (2021): Identity of some recently described Lepidoptera from France-re-assessed with DNA barcodes and morphology.

03CC87D5B250DF0DFF36FA95FBE88B7D.taxon	discussion	Remarks. Stigmella thibaulti was described from a male holotype and compared with S. betulicola (Stainton, 1856) and S. nivenburgensis (Preissecker, 1942) (Varenne & Nel 2019). The successfully sequenced specimen fully matches S. nivenburgensis in DNA barcode, and although this sequence is not considered barcode compliant, it falls within the BIN that all European specimens share. The alleged diagnostic characters are due to different preparation techniques (i. e. pressure on coverslip); the triangular “ flap ” on the valval tip is present in all species in the betulicola species group, but usually invisible as it is positioned ventrally, but pressure moves it laterally (see figures in Johansson & Nielsen 1990). Stigmella nivenburgensis was recorded recently as new for France (van Nieukerken et al. 2012 b). Stigmella thibaulti is considered to be a junior synonym of S. nivenburgensis.	en	Huemer, Peter, Van Nieukerken, Erik J.

03CC87D5B251DF0CFF36FACBFE758BF3.taxon	discussion	Remarks. Trifurcula angustivalva was described from a male holotype and a female paratype and compared with several other congeneric species, particularly T. squamatella Stainton, 1849. We have been able to obtain a short sequence of the holotype with 242 bp and a complete DNA barcode of the paratype. Both sequences fully correspond to each other with ca. 7.5 % distance to the nearest neighbour in BOLD, an unnamed species of Trifurcula from Slovenia. Morphologically the species is well characterised, and belongs to the group of species around T. squamatella and T. beirnei Puplesis, 1984, that probably all make hidden mines inside stems or galls on brooms (Laštůvka & Laštůvka 2005).	en	Huemer, Peter, Van Nieukerken, Erik J.

03CC87D5B256DF0BFF36FF24FD298F59.taxon	discussion	Remarks. Trifurcula aureacorsa was described from a male holotype and three female paratypes and compared with Trifurcula immundella (Zeller, 1839). The holotype was examined by EvN, but not sequenced due to lack of sufficient tissue to sample without damaging the specimen. We obtained two short sequences from female paratypes, both from a different part of the barcode, without overlap, which makes them not comparable. On the basis of the male and female genitalia, the species is considered to be the same as a taxon from Sardinia as assessed by EvN (cited by Triberti & Braggio 2011), and is assigned to BIN BOLD: ACG 9232. In different neighbor-joining analyses the barcode sequences of the paratype specimens grouped with the Sardinian specimens, albeit at some distance. We consider this to be a Tyrrhenian endemic species.	en	Huemer, Peter, Van Nieukerken, Erik J.

03CC87D5B256DF0BFF36FACBFC578BCF.taxon	discussion	Remarks. Trifurcula guercheae was described from a male holotype and briefly compared with Trifurcula immundella (Zeller, 1839) and T. beirnei Puplesis, 1984 (Varenne & Nel 2019). Both are indeed rather different species, but the genitalia of T. guercheae are almost completely identical to T. pallidella (Duponchel, 1843) (van Nieukerken & Johansson 1986; van Nieukerken et al. 2004 b), a species currently unknown from France, although it is found in the Ligurian Alps not far from the French border (van Nieukerken et al. 2004 b). A short DNA barcode sequence of 406 bp of the specimen is about 3 % divergent from T. pallidella (Duponchel, 1843), the nearest known neighbour in BOLD. For the time being we refrain from synonymising T. guercheae, as further material is needed to assess the barcode variation in T. pallidella.	en	Huemer, Peter, Van Nieukerken, Erik J.

03CC87D5B257DF09FF36FA57FACD8D88.taxon	discussion	Remarks. Pseudopostega cyrneochalcopepla was described from two males with identical collection data (Nel & Varenne 2012 a). We studied and sequenced the paratype, resulting in a full barcode, with a distance of 4.3 % to its nearest neighbour, continental P. chalcopepla (Walsingham, 1908). Despite this difference, the species was synonymised with P. chalcopepla on the basis of the virtual identical genitalia and external characters (van Nieukerken et al. 2016). This was challenged by Nel & Varenne (2016 c) who detailed additional morphological differences. However, after studying a larger number of specimens, we still failed to see differences. Nel & Varenne (2012 a, 2016 c) gave the wingspan of 10 mm as a difference, but van Nieukerken et al. (2004 a) gave a range of 10.5 – 14 mm, which is hardly different. The number of pecten sensilla is another character mentioned by these authors: 32 – 34 in cyrneochalcopepla versus 43 – 49 in chalcopepla. However, we examined several specimens from continental France with 36 – 37 sensilla, showing a much larger range for this character. Other characters used are variable even within populations. Following van Nieukerken et al. (2016) we prefer to keep the island populations within one species, until more is known of these and other island populations. Island populations often have large barcoding gaps to mainland populations, which taken alone is in our opinion not sufficient for species status.	en	Huemer, Peter, Van Nieukerken, Erik J.

Trifurcula lastuvkaorum was described from a male holotype and a male paratype and superficially compared with T. mediocorsa in the subgenus Levarchama (Varenne & Nel 2019). Morphologically, however, T. lastuvkaorum has nothing to do with that subgenus, which is now no longer considered as subgenus, but as the T. cryptella species group (van Nieukerken et al. 2016). Trifurcula lastuvkaorum clearly belongs to the pallidella species group. The species was known to us as an unnamed stem miner of Genista scorpius, common in Mediterranean France and the Iberian Peninsula. The DNA barcode sequence of the holotype with 574 bp falls with the BIN of this species of Trifurcula.	en	Huemer, Peter, Van Nieukerken, Erik J.

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.	en	Huemer, Peter, Van Nieukerken, Erik J.

03CC87D5B254DF09FF36FD90FE678852.taxon	discussion	Remarks. Lampronia aenigma was described from the male holotype and compared with L. aeripennella (Rebel, 1889) externally, but the genitalia were considered similar to L. pubicornis (Haworth, 1828) which is very different externally (Nel & Varenne 2019 a). However, externally it also matches very well L. provectella (Heyden, 1865) and L. psychidella (Millière, 1854), two montane species not considered by Nel & Varenne (2019 a). Whereas L. aenigma differs from L. provectella in structures of the phallus, the genitalia of L. psychidella are unknown, hence the latter species should be re-assessed for possible conspecitity. Unfortunately DNA barcoding of the holotype specimen of L. aenigma failed.	en	Huemer, Peter, Van Nieukerken, Erik J.

Unfortunately no DNA barcode sequence is yet available in BOLD for N. agenjoi. However, the DNA barcode of the successfully sequenced holotype of N. peslieri fully agrees to that of the holotype of N. inexpectata, and from the original figures the female genitalia of both species also largely agree. We therefore synonymize N. peslieri with N. inexpectata. The male sex of N. peslieri published by Huemer (2019) consequently depicts N. inexpectata.	en	Huemer, Peter, Van Nieukerken, Erik J.

03CC87D5B25EDF03FF36FF6CFD7A8EA5.taxon	discussion	Remarks. Acleris brigantiensis was described from a single male and compared with the widespread A. emargana (Nel & Varenne 2013 c). However, Nel (2014 c) later considered alleged differences in male genitalia as artefacts and consequently synonymized both taxa. We obtained a short sequence of 305 bp of the holotype which matches A. emargana and so confirms the synonymy.	en	Huemer, Peter, Van Nieukerken, Erik J.

03CC87D5B25FDF02FF36FF24FBA78F45.taxon	discussion	Remarks. Ancylis paraobtusana was described from a male holotype and a female paratype and compared with several congeneric species, particularly with its alleged closest taxon A. obtusana (Haworth, 1811) (Nel et al. 2020). However, DNA barcodes of the successfully sequenced holotype and paratype cluster together with a specimen of A. comptana (Frölich, 1828) from Lower Austria with only 0.4 % divergence; these are in turn nested among three clusters of European samples without geographic structure. On the basis of uniform morphology, these clusters are considered to belong to a single, genetically variable species. Another strongly divergent cluster from North America with ca. 2.7 % divergence to the nearest neighbour in Europe remains unrevised and possibly represents a different species. We consider the described phenotypical and genital differences in the original description as individual variation and therefore synonymize A. paraobtusana with A. comptana.	en	Huemer, Peter, Van Nieukerken, Erik J.

03CC87D5B25CDF00FF36FD46FE8F8E60.taxon	discussion	Remarks. Cydia oxytropidana was described from a male holotype and several paratypes of both sexes. Nel & Varenne (2016 a) compared the species with C. oxytropidis (Martini, 1912) but based their diagnosis exclusively on genitalia figures published by Razowski (2003). Whereas the discussed differences in male genitalia are subtle, the females of both species seemed to differ strikingly e. g. by the lack of signa in C. oxytropidis vs well developed in C. oxytropidana. However, re-assessment of allegedly diagnostic characters gave a different picture. Male genitalia show intraspecific variation that does not support two species. Similarly female genitalia characters underly some variation as shown by Nel & Varenne (2016 a) for C. oxytropidana. Paired signa in female genitalia are a basic structure in Cydia and well developed in all European species. It is therefore suspected that the figure of C. oxytropidis in Razowski (2003), based on a specimen from Ukraine, is erroneous. Other specimens of C. oxytropidis from the Ukraine have normally developed signa (Kavurka 2010) and the same applies to material from Central Europe dissected by PH. Finally we have been able to obtain DNA barcode sequences of the holotype and two paratypes of C. oxytropidana which also fully correspond to C. oxytropidis. We therefore synonymize C. oxytropidana with C. oxytropidis.	en	Huemer, Peter, Van Nieukerken, Erik J.

03CC87D5B25DDF00FF36FB7AFE728B42.taxon	discussion	Remarks. Dichrorampha melaniana was decribed from three female specimens from the French Alps and compared with D. alpigenana Heinemann, 1863. The male sex was published only a year later by Nel & Varenne (2017 a), based on a single specimen. The authors had not been aware of another related species, namely D. tarmanni Huemer, 2009, which occurs in nearby Italy. Both species are close in genitalia with only subtle differences in the female but seemingly better separated in the male. The successfully sequenced holotype of D. melaniana fully corresponds to D. tarmanni as well as to several other species of Dichrorampha. It appears that barcode sharing is widespread in this group of closely related species. Though the validity of D. melaniana seems well supported from available figures it will be necessary to study the intraspecific variation and to re-assess the species group of D. plumbana (Scopoli, 1763).	en	Huemer, Peter, Van Nieukerken, Erik J.

Epiblema bonifaciensis was described from a single male holotype and compared with several congeneric species, particularly the closest taxon E. graphana (Treitschke, 1835) (Nel et al 2020). The DNA barcode of the successfully sequenced holotype is not barcode compliant and ca. 1.4 % divergent from the nearest neighbour, E. graphana. The latter species shows considerable intraspecific barcode variation with altogether three BINs, and E. bonifaciensis nests in a group near the most widespread cluster. The small differences in male genitalia and also in the later described female (Varenne et al. 2020) may be due to individual variation and distortion of genitalia (female ostium), and require careful re-assessment in the context of a revision of the intraspecific variation of E. graphana.	en	Huemer, Peter, Van Nieukerken, Erik J.

The DNA barcode sequence of the holotype was already published by Huemer et al. (2020) and clearly differs from topotypical A. subericinella collected in eastern Austria. Moreover, it differs externally from A. leonhardi Krone, 1907, the only European species of the A. subericinella species-group without barcode (Huemer et al. 2020). However, the genus Aristotelia, and particularly the A. subericinella species group including A. billii, are in need of a taxonomic revision.	en	Huemer, Peter, Van Nieukerken, Erik J.

Aroga corsa was described from four males and four females bred from the Corsican endemic Astragalus terraccianoi (Fabaceae) and compared with the closely related A. aristotelis (Nel & Varenne 2019 a). However, genitalia in this species had been considered as highly variable so far (Sattler 1960). We have been able to obtain a complete DNA barcode sequence of the holotype which strongly differs from A. aristotelis by ca. 4.9 % and therefore supports a separate species status.	en	Huemer, Peter, Van Nieukerken, Erik J.

03CC87D5B246DF19FF36F924FE8B8EA8.taxon	discussion	Remarks. Chionodes cerdanica was described from a single female and superficially compared with C. ignorantella (Herrich-Schäffer, 1854) (Nel et al. 2020). The holotype shows some unique features in genitalia, particularly the short and triangular antrum and the digitate distal part of the apophyses anteriores. However, the fully recovered DNA barcode despite not being barcode compliant, clearly indicates possible conspecifity with C. distinctella (Zeller, 1839). This species shows some genetic variation represented by a barcode cluster occurring in Finland and a widespread cluster in Europe with considerable genetic variation of 2.15 % within this BIN (Huemer et al. 2020). The holotype of C. cerdanica nests in a geographically widespread cluster with only ca. 0.6 % divergence from the nearest neighbour. Furthermore the female genitalia of both taxa are at least partially similar in the broad apophyses anteriores. Curiously, Nel et al. (2020) described the ductus and corpus bursae of C. cerdanica as transparent whereas they also stated that these structures were not found during preparation. Whereas the entrance of the ductus bursae is always visible at the anterior end of the antrum in Chionodes, it seems to be completely reduced in this specimen. Therefore we believe that the specimen is likely the result of a rare mutation or of a developmental anomaly that led to genitalia malformation. We consider that it is conspecific with C. distinctella and synonymize them. A similar case was recently exposed for the long-disputed taxon “ Mesapamea remmi ” (Sihvonen et al. 2019).	en	Huemer, Peter, Van Nieukerken, Erik J.

03CC87D5B244DF19FF36FD49FCD28906.taxon	discussion	Remarks. Isophrictis lineatella littorella was described from five males, a single female and specimens without information on sex (Nel et al. 2020). We have been able to obtain a full barcode sequence of a paratype from Corsica which clusters separately from material collected in Italy (country of type locality of lineatella) and Spain. Unfortunately Nel et al. (2020) did not figure the holotype of ssp. littorella from mainland France but only paratypes from Corsica, and it is therefore impossible to assess the status of this taxon with certainty. Cryptic diversity seems not unlikely from the three currently known barcode clusters.	en	Huemer, Peter, Van Nieukerken, Erik J.

Sattleria taurandi was described from a male holotype and a male paratype, and compared with three other species of Sattleria from the Pyrenees (Nel & Varenne 2019 b). The DNA barcode of the successfully sequenced holotype is about 2.3 % divergent from the nearest species S. pyrenaica (Petry, 1904). However, unfortunately no DNA barcode exists for S. angustispina Pitkin & Sattler, 1991, the nearest species from morphology. Both species can only be separated by subtle genitalia characters which are based on slides made with different preparation techniques, and thus need careful re-assessment.	en	Huemer, Peter, Van Nieukerken, Erik J.

DNA barcoding of the holotype failed but the species belongs to an unresolved species complex, reflected in the extraordinarily divergent barcodes comprising eight different BINs as well as differences in phenotype.

The species was recently included in the World Catalogue of Elachistidae as valid taxon (Kaila 2019). However, the successfully sequenced holotype shares the barcode with E. maculosella, a species described from France and corresponding in morphology but not considered as potential conspecific by Varenne & Nel (2018). According to Kaila (pers. comm.) the taxon falls in the range of intraspecific variation of E. maculosella.

The species was separated from several related taxa particularly by subtle characters of male genitalia. In particular E. gormella was discussed in detail and separated by diagnostic structures, and hence E. paracollitella was included in the World Catalogue of Elachistidae as valid taxon (Kaila 2019). However, the holotype of E. paracollitella is very close to E. gormella in DNA barcode, with 98.65 % similarity, indicating possible conspecificity.

Duospina europaea was described from a male holotype which was already successfully sequenced in advance of publication but the barcode was not considered in the description. The species is almost 9 % divergent from the nearest extra-European species Duospina trichella (Busck, 1908), but only 2.57 % divergent from an unpublished congeneric species from Bulgaria in BOLD.	en	Huemer, Peter, Van Nieukerken, Erik J.

03CC87D5B24FDF12FF36FF24FC878EC9.taxon	discussion	Remarks. Elachista rosselloensis was described from a single male holotype. The worn specimen with overall white appearance was compared with other superficially similar looking species (Nel & Varenne 2019 a) but not with the morphologically closest species E. bedellella (Sircom, 1848) (Kaila in litt.). We have been able to obtain a short sequence of the holotype with 259 bp which, however, corresponds to E. squamosella (Duponchel, 1843) with 99.6 % similarity. The latter species is quite different externally and in genitalia morphology and similarity in DNA barcode may be due to the short sequence. E. rosseloensis was not considered in the almost simultaneously published World Catalogue of Elachistidae (Kaila 2019).	en	Huemer, Peter, Van Nieukerken, Erik J.

03CC87D5B24CDF11FF36FF6CFB0B8EC9.taxon	discussion	Remarks. Scythris argentierella was described from a female holotype and randomly compared with several superficially similar species such as S. staudingeri Jäckh, 1978 (Nel 2014 a). However, the DNA barcode sequence of the holotype is nearest to S. laminella ([Denis & Schifferm ̹ ller], 1775), a species belonging to a different species group, with ca. 6 % divergence. As several species of Scythris remain without sequences, and the male of S. argentierella is still unknown, the taxonomic status will have to be re-assessed in the future.	en	Huemer, Peter, Van Nieukerken, Erik J.

03CC87D5B24DDF10FF36FD45FF6488DF.taxon	discussion	Remarks. Epermenia pumila was described from a male specimen collected in 1948 in the Alpes-Maritimes (Buvat & Nel 2000). We have not been able to examine the holotype, but examined a second specimen identified as E. pumila by J. Nel which fully corresponds to the original description. This specimen agrees both morphologically and in the DNA barcode with E. profugella (Stainton, 1856) and E. pumila is therefore synonymized with that species.	en	Huemer, Peter, Van Nieukerken, Erik J.

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.	en	Huemer, Peter, Van Nieukerken, Erik J.
