Agrilus pilicauda Saunders 1874

Agrilus pilicauda Saunders, 1874 = A. monticola Kerremans, 1914 = A. oreophilus Fisher, 1921 syn. nov. Examination of syntype of A. pilicauda preserved in BMNH and syntype of A. monticola preserved in MNHN revealed their conspecifity and therefore names A. monticola and A. oreophilus (which is the replacement name for A. monticola Kerremans, 1914 not Kerremans, 1906) are junior synonyms of A. pilicauda.
