Abstract: | The Lepidoptera type specimens in the collection of the Natural Sciences Museum of Barcelonawere reorganized and catalogued. The revised collection —the vast majority of which belonged to Ignasi de Sagarra— now consists of 1,128 type specimens, corresponding to 168 taxa. This study provides all the available information relating to each of the revised specimens, including the current taxonomic status, the original name if different, the original reference for the type material, the exact transcription of the original label, and the conservation status of the specimen. Differences between the original description of species and their labels, as well as any taxonomical changes that have occurred, are also discussed. The corresponding bibliography is included in the references. If a taxonomic change has occurred since the description of taxa, the references discussing such changes are given. |
