Description

Gilpinia pallida (Klug, 1812)

Lophyrus pallidus Klug, 1812: 54-55. ♀, ♂. Syntypes. Type locality: Sweden and northern Germany. ZMHB.

Lophyrus catocalus Snellen van Vollenhoven, 1858: 276-277. ♀, ♂. Syntypes. Lectotype ♀ designated by Thomas (1987). Type locality: Netherlands, Groesbeek near Nijmegen. syn. nov.

Gilpinia catocala: Thomas (1987) recombination.

Gilpinia verticalis Gussakovskij, 1947: 154-155, 227-228. ♀, ♂. Syntypes. Type locality: localities in Poland, Latvia and Russia. Synonymy with G. catocala by Thomas (1987).

Notes.

Although we have not studied the lectotype of Lophyrus catocalus, the interpretation of its taxonomic status is possible after referring to Gussakovskij’s description of G. verticalis and the other publications cited above. We agree with Pschorn-Walcher (1982) and Viitasaari and Varama (1987) that the two forms are an expression of individual variability, linked to population differences with a geographical component. Accordingly, we treat Gilpinia catocala as a junior synonym of G. pallida.
