Description

Stigmella cyrneorolandi Nel & Varenne, 2013

Stigmella cyrneorolandi Nel & Varenne 2013c: 18, figs. 1–3.

Examined material. Holotype Ƌ: France, Corse-du-Sud, Linguizetta, 2 m, 6.X.2012, uv, Th. Varenne leg., genitalia slide TV n°5215 (RCTV).

BOLD Specimen ID TLMF 28229; BOLD Sequence ID PALEA219-20.

BIN: BOLD:ACC2707

Identity: Stigmella rolandi van Nieukerken, 1990, syn. nov. (Fig. 1)

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.
