Host
Alcis repandata; Croesus septentrionalis; Hypomecis [Clematis]; Menophra abruptaria; Opisthograptis luteolata; Ourapteryx sambucaria; Peribatodes rhomboidaria (Yu & van Achterberg, 2004).
Distribution
China (Gansu, Fujian); Austria, Bulgaria, Czechoslovakia, France, Germany, Hungary, Italy, Moldova, Netherlands, Romania, Russia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Switzerland, Turkey, United Kingdom, Yugoslavia.
Remarks
No specimens were available for this study. However, the description of this species by Chen and Song (2004)[6] based on the specimens collected from Fujian is obviously different from that by Telenga (1955)[3]. Telenga described this species with mesoscutum coriaceous-rugose, dull; areolet 4-sided; and T1 parallel-sided while Chen & Song stated that this species has the mesoscutum with fine punctures anteriorly but almost smooth posteriorly; areolet 3-sided; and T1 broadening posteriorly. Therefore, the specimens identified by Chen & Song (2004) need further examination.
