Olethreutes
Introduction __NOTOC__'''''Olethreutes''''' is a large genus of tortrix moths (family Tortricidae). It is the type genus of its tribe (Olethreutini) and subfamily (Olethreutinae). ''Celyphoides'', ''Loxoterma'' and ''Paracelypha'' are sometimes listed as junior synonyms of ''Olethreutes''. But the type species of the first is ''Tortrix flavipalpana'' (now ''Celypha flavipalpana''), that of the second is ''T. latifasciana'' (now ''C. aurofasciana''), and that of the third is ''Phalaena rivulana'' (now ''Syricoris rivulana''). This makes ''Celyphoides'' and ''Loxoterma'' junior subjective synonyms of ''Celypha'' and ''Paracelypha'' a junior subjective synonym of ''Syricoris'', at least according to the present delimitation of these genera.
Species This genus has long served as "wastebin genus" for Olethreutinae, many of which were formerly placed here but are nowadays assigned to related genera. Especially ''Argyroploce'' was included in ''Olethreutes'' by some authors even in recent times. ''Phiaris micana'' (the type species of ''Phiaris'') has erroneously been listed in the present genus, even though ''Phiaris'' is generally regarded as distinct; its delimitation versus ''Olethreutes'' requires more study however.The 131 species at least provisionally placed in ''Olethreutes'' today are:* ''Olethreutes agatha'' Falkovitsh, 1966* ''Olethreutes agnota'' Diakonoff,
