Original locality.

Sierra Alta de Albarracin" [Spain: Teruel, Albarracin, Sierra Alta, 1700 m].

Current status.

Infrasubspecific and hence unavailable name.

Remarks.

Reiss (1922) proposed this name as an aberration of Zygaena achilleae (Esper, 1780). Therefore, it is deemed to be infrasubspecific, it is hence unavailable (Article 45.6.2, ICZN 1999).
