Celypha
Introduction '''''Celypha''''' is a genus of tortrix moths (family Tortricidae). It belongs to the tribe Olethreutini of subfamily Olethreutinae.The closely related genus ''Syricoris'' is sometimes included in ''Celypha''.
Taxonomy ===Species===The twenty currently recognized species of ''Celypha'' are:* ''Celypha anatoliana'' (Caradja, 1916)* ''Celypha argyrata'' Razowski, 2009* ''Celypha atriapex'' Razowski, 2009* ''Celypha aurofasciana''* ''Celypha capreolana'' (Herrich-Schäffer, 1851)* ''Celypha cespitana''* ''Celypha conflictana'' (Kennel, 1901)* ''Celypha constructa'' (Meyrick, 1922)* ''Celypha cornigerus'' (Oku, 1968)* ''Celypha ermolenkoi'' Kostyuk, 1980* ''Celypha erythrana'' (Tengstrom, 1848)* ''Celypha flavipalpana'' (Herrich-Schäffer, 1851)* ''Celypha hydrangeana'' (Kuznetzov, 1969)* ''Celypha kostjukorum'' Budashkin & Dubatolov, 2006* ''Celypha kurilensis'' (Oku, 1965)* ''Celypha perfracta'' Diakonoff, 1983* ''Celypha pseudalarixicola'' Liu & Fang in Jianwen & Liu, 1992* ''Celypha rufana''* ''Celypha rurestrana'' (Duponchel in Godart, 1842)* ''Celypha sapaecola'' Razowski, 2009* ''Celypha sistrata'' (Meyrick, 1911)* ''Celypha striana''* ''Celypha woodiana'' (Barrett, 1882)===Synonyms===Obsolete scientific names (junior synonyms and others) for this genus are:* ''Celypa'' (''lapsus'')* ''Celyphoides'' Obraztsov, 1960* ''Cleyphoides'' (''lapsus'')* ''Euchroma'' (''lapsus, non'' Solier, 1833: preoccupied)* ''Euchromia'' Stephens, 1829 (''non'' Hübner, 1819: preoccupied)* ''Loxoterma'' Busck, 1906Due to the very close relationship between ''Celypha'' and the "wastebin genus" ''Olethreutes'', there has been some confusion about the former's synonymy. ''Celyphoides'' and ''Loxoterma'' are sometimes listed as a synonym of ''Olethreutes''. But the type species of the first is ''Tortrix flavipalpana'' (a junior synonym of ''C. flavipalpana''), and that of the second is ''T. latifasciana'' (a junior synonym of ''C. aurofasciana''). This makes ''Celyphoides'' and ''Loxoterma'' junior subjective synonyms of ''Celypha'', at least in its present delimitation. ''Celyphoides'', meanwhile, was a ''nomen nudum'' for 5 years. It was first used by R. Agenjo Cecilia in 1955, but only properly established by N.S. Obraztsov in 1960.
