Distribution Data for Orthotaenia undulana

Large Map & Chart Report Errors About Maps

Distribution:	USA: Alaska; Europe. (Until a a formal revision of O. undulana is published, the cryptic species, widespread in the US and Canada, is included in the distribution map with images listed nr. undulana.)
Similar Species:	2844 Orthotaenia deprecatoria - Specimens from a northwest population placed in BOLD BIN group BOLD:AAA8540, currently misidentified as O. undulana, refer to 2844 O. deprecatoria in Gilligan et al. (2020). 2859.5 Syricoris lacunana Pinned specimens of related species. (Hint: select View by Region on the related species page.)
Synonymy:	undulana ([Denis & Schiffermüller], 1775) (Tortrix) - MONA 1983: 2770 Type locality: Vienna, Austria. aemulana (Hübner, [1825] 1816) (Celypha) campestrana (Zeller, 1876) (Sericoris) Type locality: USA: Maine or Massachusetts. dilutifuscana (Walsingham, 1879) (Sericoris) Type locality: USA: southern Oregon. griseistruatana (Bruand, 1850) (Sericoris) rufa (Tutt, 1889) (Sericoris) urticana (Hübner, 1799) (Tortrix)
Taxonomic Notes:	Orthotaenia undulana ([Denis & Schiffermüller], 1775) is treated as a European species also found in Alaska with specimens from the US and southern Canada, previously treated by authors as O. undulana, regarded as a cryptic species in Gilligan et al. (2020), Insects, 11(9), 594: 1-59. A future split could result in the elevation of O. campestrana (Zeller, 1876), currently a synonym of O. undulana, to full species with O. dilutifuscana Walsingham, 1879, also currently a synonym of O. undulana, treated as a junior synonym of O. campestrana.
