Identity: Phyllonorycter baetica Laštůvka & Laštůvka, 2006 , synonymised by Laštůvka et al. (2013).

Remarks. Phyllonorycter lobeliella was described from a series of ten specimens of both sexes, bred from Genista lobelii DC. The species was synonymized with Phyllonorycter baetica Laštůvka & Laštůvka, 2006 by Laštůvka et al. (2013) but resurrected at subspecies level by Nel (2013). As the DNA barcode is identical throughout its distribution area, we see no grounds for maintaining a split at subspecies level.
