Remarks. Opostegoides menthinella occurs locally in the Mediterranean area and on Corsica (type locality). It is possibly associated with Cistus (van Nieukerken et al. 2004a) , but this remains to be proven. For illustrations and a key see van Nieukerken et al. (2004a). Opostega snelleni was synonymised by van Nieukerken 1996 (1996).
