Recenzii

'Catalogues of this kind are very helpful to those making revisions of a particular group of Lepidoptera, since they reduce the need to check sources in detail, as long as this has been thoroughly done. [...] Such a book will only appeal to curators and researchers into this group, but they will find it most useful.'
David Agassiz in: Entomologist’s Gazette (2015) Vol. 66, p. 288-289.

'This catalogue treats five of the eleven families of Yponomeutoidea (a second part will deal with the remaining six). Taxonomic catalogues do not make compelling reading - but then, catalogues are intended for non-linear reference to information such as the names of taxa, author
and date of description, taxonomic status and type specimens. They are perceived better as a component of taxonomic infrastructure.
As with all competent catalogues, this one does much to propel us towards a better understanding of just which genera and species should
be included in the target taxon.'
Malcolm Scoble (Department of Life Sciences, Natural History Museum, London) in: Antenna 2015:39 (3), p. 166.
