Hello everyone
Please help me deal with these little things.
In M. I. Sirotkin's list of Lepidoptera (Macrolepidoptera) Moscow and Kaluga regions " in the genus Eupithecia, two such species are indicated:
E. abietaria Goeze
E. bilunulata Schiff.
Listed as separate types.
On the Internet on a fairly serious (in my opinion) site
http://www.funet.fi/pub/sci/bio/life/insec...ecia/index.html
these two types are synonymous.
On some sites, for example http://www.kolumbus.fi/silvonen/lnel/g12/geomet12.htm a synonym for bilunulata is Eupithecia analoga
and on this large site are Butterflies of Europe http://www.lepidoptera.pl/start.php?lang=UK
there are both analoga and abietaria as separate species, but bilunulata does not exist at all.
Where is the truth, citizens?
