Recently, Bippus (2020) reinstated Bilobata subsecivella (Zeller, 1852) as a valid species and he also discussed about considering Aproaerema modicella (Deventer, 1904) as junior synonym of B. subsecivella. However, this synonymizing needs thorough investigation of type specimens to come to definite conclusion. In this catalogue, we are considering this species as a valid species.
