title: Correction of the publication date of Lithocolletis Helianthemella Herrich-Schäffer based on additional data of the taxonomic history of this species (Lepidoptera: Gracillariidae).
abstract: Recently De Prins et al. (2013) published a description of the new genus Triberta and transferred to it two species, T. cistifoliella (Groschke) and T. helianthemella (Herrich-Schäffer), formerly assigned to the genus Phyllonorycter Hübner. In the upcoming studies related to this new genus the need arose to clarify whether the publication year of T. helianthemella is 1860 or 1861 (Buszko 1996, 2013; De Prins & De Prins 2005, 2013).
