Description

Kessleria lativalva Nel & Varenne, 2016

Kessleria lativalva Nel & Varenne 2016a: 31, figs. 9–10.

Examined material. Holotype Ƌ: France, Alpes-Maritimes, Belvédère, 29.VI.2012, uv, 1130 m, Th. Varenne leg., genitalia slide JN n°26261 (RCTV).

BOLD Specimen ID TLMF 21929; BOLD Sequence ID LEASS471-17.

BIN: BOLD:ADF8352

Identity: Kessleria lativalva Nel & Varenne, 2016

Remarks. Kessleria lativalva was described from a male holotype and superficially compared with several congeneric species. The nearest neighbour in BOLD is Kessleria petrobiella (Zeller, 1868) with ca. 7% distance. Taking into account the almost complete sequencing of the European Kessleria, a separate species status appears to be correct (Huemer 2018).
