Der Lectotypus von Canephora sieboldii Reutti, 1853, wird festgelegt. Es wird darüber hinaus gezeigt, dass der Holotypus von Psychidea balcanica Wehrli, 1933, vom Autor selbst festgelegt wurde und dass somit die Lectotypusfestlegung durch Meier, 1966, ungültig ist. Das von Sieder 1971 als Holotypus des unbeschriebenen Taxons Reisseronia achaja etikettierte Exemplar
ist Heliopsychidea graecella (Millière, 1866).
The Gelechiidae of the SMNK were curated and rearranged
in a main collection: approximately 35,000
specimens of more than 800 species have been arranged
in 91 drawers. This is the result of the integration
of several separate collections as well as unsorted
specimens. With 125 primary types (holotypes and
lectotypes) and a considerable number of specimens
from poorly studied regions, the Gelechiidae collection
of the SMNK is one of the most species-rich collections
of this family worldwide. The material from the collection
is frequently used in recent taxonomic revisions
of Gelechiidae. The history of the collection is briefly
discussed.
