Sattleria taurandi Nel & Varenne 2019b: 139 View in CoL , figs. 1A–C, 2A, 3.

Examined material. Holotype Ƌ: France, Ariège , Mérens-les Vals, 2800 m, 27.VII.2018, L. Taurand leg., genitalia slide LT n°9 (Muséum d’Histoire Naturelle de Toulouse).

BOLD Specimen ID TLMF 28116; BOLD Sequence ID PALEA106-20.

BIN: BOLD:AEC3328

Identity: Sattleria taurandi Nel & Varenne, 2019 , identity uncertain.

Remarks. Sattleria taurandi was described from a male holotype and a male paratype, and compared with three other species of Sattleria from the Pyrenees ( Nel & Varenne 2019b). The DNA barcode of the successfully sequenced holotype is about 2.3% divergent from the nearest species S. pyrenaica (Petry, 1904) . However, unfortunately no DNA barcode exists for S. angustispina Pitkin & Sattler, 1991 , the nearest species from morphology. Both species can only be separated by subtle genitalia characters which are based on slides made with different preparation techniques, and thus need careful re-assessment.
