Omiodes sauterialis
species of insect

Omiodes sauterialis is a moth in the family Crambidae. It was described by Strand in 1918. It is found in Taiwan. However, it is not listed on the Wikipedia page 'Moths of Taiwan, and there appears to be no photo of it, so its existence is questionable.
This brief starts where responsible research should: with the source description of “Omiodes sauterialis” as species of insect. Everything that follows is an evidence route, not borrowed authority.
Why this record matters
The subject matters to the science & nature register because the source frames it as species of insect. Its deeper value depends on whether names, dates, institutions and citations support that framing.
The date and method of observation matter as much as the stated conclusion, especially where classification or consensus has changed. The source revision retrieved here is dated Mar 3, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q19598214. None of the 0 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 1918.
Current terminology should not be projected backward without checking the classification used when the underlying evidence was created. The source lead contains qualifying language; that uncertainty should survive quotation, summary and reuse. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
