Synonyms
Pyralis helveticalis Herrich-Schaeffer, 1851
Orenaia helveticalis (Herrich-Schaeffer, 1851)
Orenaia helveticalis albescens Galvagni, 1926 (nec Rebel, 1910)
Orenaia helveticalis galvagnii Klima, 1939

Note: This entire genus is in urgent need of a thorough revision. The species in the genus are very variable in wing coloration, but show only slight differences in e.g. genitalia morphology. Thus, the separation of the species is problematic and very debated.

Note: Orenaia lugubralis has previously been erroneously synonymized with Orenaia helveticalis. This was caused by a confused and wrong concept of Orenaia helveticalis in the older literature. The true Orenaia helveticalis and Orenaia lugubralis are clearly separate species.
