Caloptilia populetorum (Zeller, 1839) was added to the list based on DNA barcode and then subsequently removed due to possible confusion with 0640 Caloptilia strictella. The true identity of C. strictella is unsettled, see Landry et al. (2013:18).

Barcode of Life (BOLD) - Caution: Identifications often erroneous; DNA barcode provides evidence of relatedness, not proof of identification; many specimens not sequenced.
