Identity of Phyllocnistis asiatica Martynova, 1955 View in CoL

Martynova (1955) described Phyllocnistis asiatica as a subspecies of Ph. saligna and stated it to differ from Western European specimens in a much lighter colour, the absence of brown tones and the replacement of them by a yellow, more subtle and Kara-Kala ( Turkmenistan). Pastorális et al. (2018) recorded the species new to Europe from Slovakia. The material was bred from mines on Salix alba L. The illustrations in Pastorális et al. (2018) and Laštůvka et al. (2018) agree with the description and figure given by Martynova (1955), and we follow their interpretation of the name asiatica . This interpretation agrees with the taxon with BIN: BOLD:AAL5482.
