Holt H. & Kuchlein J. H.: Additional data on the distribution
and early stages of Chrysoesthia verrucosa (Lepidoptera:
Gelechiidae).
Phegea 34(1): 1316.
The recently described gelechiid moth Chrysoesthia
verrucosa Tokár, 1999 is recorded for the first time
for Italy, where it was found in the Aosta region on 3 August
2002. Larvae were found mining the leaves of goosefoot (Chenopodium
sp.) and the adults were reared; the early stages and foodplant(s)
of this species were still unknown. Identification, bionomics
and geographical distribution of C. verrucosa and some
related species will be discussed.

S.: Nola ronkayorum sp. n., a new species from Bulgaria
and Turkey (Lepidoptera: Nolidae).
Phegea 34(1): 1732.
Nola ronkayorum sp. n. is described from Bulgaria (Southern
Black Sea Coast and Eastern Rhodopi Mts.) and Turkey (Taurus
Mts. and Eastern Pontic Mts.). The new species forms small colonies
and is on the wing for a short period in April-May. N. ronkayorum
differs in appearance from the other known Nola species.
In genital characteristics it shows clear differences from the
closely related Nola confusalis, especially the sclerotization
on the ductus bursae of the female and in the sclerotization
of the eighth abdominal segment in the male, as well as by other
small differences in male and female genitalia.

A. N. & Artokhin K. S.: Tarachidia candefacta (Lepidoptera:
Noctuidae) in the south of European Russia.
Phegea 34(2): 4144.
Tarachidia candefacta (Hübner, 1831) was imported
from Canada and released in the Krasnodar region in the years
60 of the 20th century in order to control Ambrosia artemisiifolia
L. The moth species has established itself in small, local populations.
Only during recent years, probably because of mild winters,
it has enlarged its range in northern direction.

S. & Slivov A.: On the presence of Valerietta niphopasta
and Valerietta hreblayi nom. nov. in Europe and of
Chersotis andereggii on the Balkan Peninsula (Lepidoptera:
Noctuidae).
Phegea 34(3): 8597.
Valerietta niphopasta (Hampson, 1906) (= Valerietta
bulgarica (Drenovsky, 1953) syn. nov.) and Valerietta
hreblayi Beshkov nom. nov. (= Valerietta bulgarica sensu
Hreblay, 1992, junior secondary homonym) are two distinct taxa,
both occurring in Bulgaria. V. niphopasta is known in
Europe only from SW Bulgaria, Kresna Gorge, published and illustrated
before from there as "Crypsedra niphopasta bulgarica
Dren." and from Vitosha Mnt., from where was described
Crypsedra niphopasta bulgarica Drenovsky, 1953 syn. nov.
The only known localities in Europe for Valerietta hreblayi
are the Bulgarian Black Sea Coast, "Arkutino" and
its surroundings south of Bourgas town, from where the neotype
of Valerietta bulgarica was designated and the last taxon
was redescribed. In fact the redescription of V. bulgarica
sensu Hreblay, 1992 is a description of a new species-group
taxon. A review of both taxa is given and the European representatives
of the genus Valerietta with their genitalia, including
the everted vesica are illustrated. Chersotis andereggii
(Boisduval, [1837]) is known to occur with certainty on
the Balkan Peninsula. Proved localities in SW Bulgaria are:
S. Pirin mnt. and E. Rila mnt. The male genitalia, including
the everted vesica, are illustrated here.

Phegea 34(3): 107110.
A new species of Conophorus is described from Turkey.
It is very closely related to Conophorus nobilis Loew,
1873 but can readily be distinguished by the form of the proboscis
and the colour of the hairs on the frons. The identification
key of Bowden (1967) is updated. One female of the new species
has also been found on the Greek island of Lesvos.

with nine species new to the country (Nepticulidae, Opostegidae,

Phegea 34(4): 125144.
Records of 56 species of mining Lepidoptera are given, mostly
for Wallonia. Stigmella thuringiaca (Namur: Nismes, on
Potentilla tabernaemontani), Ectoedemia arcuatella
(Luxembourg, Namur, on Fragaria vesca) and Leucoptera
lustratella (Luxembourg, Namur, on Hypericum perforatum)
are reported new for Belgium on the basis of reared adults,
Stigmella crataegella (Luxembourg: Belvaux, Crataegus
monogyna), S. confusella (West-Vlaanderen, Betula
pubescens), Trifurcula subnitidella (Namur: Nismes,
Lotus corniculatus), and Ectoedemia spinosella
(Namur: Nismes, Prunus spinosa) are reported as new on
the basis of vacated mines and Coptotriche heinemanni
(on Agrimonia eupatoria) and C. gaunacella (on
Prunus spinosa) are reported as new both from the province
of Luxembourg: Torgny, each on the basis of a single larva and
mine, of which rearing failed. In addition to these, 50 new
provincial records are given, particularly for Liège,
Luxembourg and Namur. The previous record of Ectoedemia agrimoniae
is regarded to be in the province of Luxembourg, not Namur.

S. K.: On the systematics of some Colias cocandica-like
taxa (Lepidoptera: Pieridae).
Phegea 34(4): 147154.
In the present paper the status of the closely related taxa
mongola, sidonia and ukokana is discussed.
For ukokana the original subspecific status is returned.
It is shown, that the taxa tamerlana and mongola
are young, separate species with different origin - the former
has its origin in a cocandica-like ancestor, the latter
in a nastes-like ancestor. The exact type localities
of the taxa mongola, sidonia, ukokana,
maja, and tamerlana are listed. The holotype (female)
of Colias cocandica Erschoff, 1874 is pictured here for
the first time.
