Gelechia haifella Amsel, 1935 View in CoL —Mitt. zool. Mus. Berl. 20 (2): 300. Syn. nov. Records. Bodenheimer 1930a: 173 ( vepretella View in CoL ); Bodenheimer 1930b: 239, 249 ( vepretella View in CoL ); Amsel 1933: 125 ( haifella View in CoL ); Amsel 1935a: 300 ( haifella View in CoL ); Amsel 1935c: 263 ( vepretella View in CoL ); Bodenheimer 1937: 100 ( haifella View in CoL & vepretella View in CoL ); Bytinski-Salz 1966: 34.

Material examined. Holotype of Gelechia haifella ♀ “Karmel, Haifa, 7.5.1930, H. Amsel ” | Gelechia haifella , Ty- pus, leg. H. Amsel ” (gen. slide 251/08 ♀, O. Bidzilya) ( SMNK); 1 ♂, Jerusalem, 6.vi.2004 (Kravchenko) ( TAU).

Host plant. In Israel larvae were reported from Prunus sp. and Pyrus sp. ( Bodenheimer 1930a: 173; 1930b: 239, 249).

Distribution. Europe, Transcaucasia, Middle East, Iran, Syria, Turkmenistan, USA (Bidzilya 2005: 50), Israel. A. rancidella tadzhika Bidzilya, 2005 from Tadzhikistan should probably be considered as a separate species according to data from DNA analysis ( Karsholt & Huemer 2017).

Remarks. Gelechia haifella was described from a single female collected on Mount Carmel near Haifa. The holotype ( Fig. 46 View FIGS 39–46 ) agrees both externally and in the genitalia with Athrips rancidella . Hence, the following synonymy is established: Gelechia haifella Amsel, 1935 syn. nov. of Athrips rancidella (Herrich-Schäffer, 1854) .
