Extract

The purposes of this paper are: (1) to validate a considerable number of lectotype selections made in the course of a revisional study of the Scopariinae, and (2) to give, for the convenience of students, a list of Meyrick holotypes and lectotypes in the collection of the British Museum (Natural History), which now contains the types of all but five of the large number of species described by Meyrick in this group. The Hawaiian species have been omitted as volume 8 of Zimmerman's Insects of Hawaii gives full particulars of the type material of Hawaiian Scopariinae, including Zimmerman's lectotype selections.
