1 o • P * 15 °’ hne 17 from helo y- r Under CeL euphorbiae ab. ruhlii (not ruhili) Bdm. it was stated that ab 
dossi Hann was synonymous to this form. This is not the case, ab. clossi is a separate aberration that varies 
symmetrically and not mereiy one-sided as stated on p. 150. The mistake arose through the illustration in 
n S > s ^ at ^ llst ofthe Macrolepido P te ra of the Berlin District’ J by A. Gloss and E. Hannemann (Berlin- 
ah em 1817. Verl. Dentsch. Entomol. Ges.). In ab. clossi the bar between the transverse oblique band and 
basal spot on forewings is much wider than in ab. ruhlii- it almost extends in width to the large costal 
spot and contrary to the form ab. ruhlii it is wider at basal spot than at oblique band.
