Discussion. Based on the examination of the holotypes of Ectoedemia laura and E. sivickisi (Stonis & Rocienė 2013) and six non-type specimens listed in the present paper (Figs 41–46), it is clear that they are conspecific. The characters of E. laura mentioned by Puplesis (1985) are not consistent when more material is examined: shape of valvae and uncus varies slightly; moreover, artefacts of slide-mounting influence the appearance of these structures. Therefore we synonymize E. laura here.
