Slide No. 5632. I have compared Meyrick’s /eontodes with Walker’s type. The latter is a female, and is clay-coloured, whereas Meyrick’s species is reddish-brown. A male, from which I have made a genitalic preparation, which matches Walker’s quadratella is easily distinguished from Meyrick’s leontodes by the cluster of small stout transverse cornuti and the long cylindrical spine-covered distal portion of the vesica. ‘The vesica of leontodes is armed with one large cornutus and its distal portion is covered with concentric bands of fine spiculate cornuti. For the above reasons I remove /eontodes from synonymy. Figure 3, left wings; 3a, ventral view of male genitalia with aedeagus 7 sztu.
