Elachista dispositella Stainton, 1858a: 305 View in CoL . Type locality: Croatia, Rijeka-Susak [as Italy, Fiume] ( Stainton 1858a: 305). Lectotype designated by Parenti (1977: 27), in NHMUK. Synonymized by Parenti (1977: 27).

Poeciloptilia griseella: Herrich-Schäffer (1855: 308) .

Subgenus: Elachista View in CoL ; bifasciella View in CoL species group.

Distribution: Palearctic. Armenia, Austria, Czech Republic, France, Greece ( Cyprus), Hungary, Italy, Poland, Romania, Russia (European part), Slovakia, Switzerland, Turkey, Ukraine.

Larval host plant(s): Calamagrostis epigejos (L.) Roth, Dactylis glomerata L., Agropyron repens (L.) Beauv., Festuca rubra L., Poa pratensis L. (all Poaceae ) ( Buszko 1989a; 1990b; Parenti & Varalda 1994).

Figs.: Buszko (1989a).

Remarks: Parenti (1977: 27) ascribed the original description of E. dispositella to Frey, 1859: 255. Stainton’s (1858a) description, based on the same material, however, predates Frey’s. Frey also cites Stainton in his treatment. Therefore, Frey cannot be considered the author of E. dispositella . The record from Russia, Irkutskaya oblast by Kaila (1992) is a misidentification of E. tuba Kaila, 2015 .
