The temporary results of the project “Bibliography of the Lepidoptera (BL)” are given as the list of the publication used in the Cesa’s projects (7500 publications) in the Chapter 4. The original references to the genus- and species group names in the Lepidoptera have been preparing by the author within the project “BL”. Temporary result for more than 14500 taxa is published in Chapter 5 with their original references.
