Pyrausta insequalis
Species of moth
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Pyrausta insequalis was a name used for a moth in the family Crambidae. It was described by Achille Guenée in 1854, with the name proposed in his appended errata as a replacement for Pyrausta subsequalis. The combination is adopted in some later works as valid (e.g. after Munroe (1995); Scholtens & Solis, 2015: 20), but later works tend to treat as a junior objective synonym of Pyrausta subsequalis, interpreted as a superfluous (unnecessary) replacement name.[1][2]
