A new species Ypsolopha rhinolophi Corley is described from northern Portugal and south-east France. It resembles Y. alpella (Denis & Schiffermüller, 1775) and Y. lucella (Fabricius, 1775) but shows clear differences from both species in DNA barcode and in male and female genitalia. Male genitalia of Y. lucella are illustrated for the first time. The new species has been collected at light, reared from larvae on Quercus pyrenaica Willd. and recognised from DNA barcode fragments obtained from droppings of horseshoe bats.

Two new species of the genus Agrisius Walker, 1855, A. orhanti Volynkin, Dubatolov & Kishida, sp. n. and A. leloii Volynkin, Dubatolov & Kishida, sp. n. are described from South Laos and Vietnam respectively. A. orhanti sp. n. belongs to the A. japonicus Leech, 1889 species-group. Whereas, the male genitalia structure of A. leloii sp. n. is intermediate between those of the A. japonicus and the A. guttivitta Walker, 1855 species-groups, therefore, it is assigned to a separated species-group (the A. leloii species-group). Agrisius dubatolovi Orhant, 2012 is downgraded as a subspecies of A. japonicus: Agrisius japonicus dubatolovi Orhant, 2012, stat. nov. Female genitalia of species of the A. japonicus and most of the A. guttivitta species-groups are illustrated for the first time.

The species belonging to the subgenus Molopsis Schatzmayr, 1943 of genus Tapinopterus Schaum, 1858 are revised. Thestudy is based on 372 specimens and includes, for each taxon, diagnosis, description (only for the new species), references,new distributional records and illustrations. Morphological characters of the male and female genitalia are widely used todelimit the separate species, the significance of some non-gonapophyseal genital structures of the females for the system-atics of Molopsis is explicitly emphasized. For the first time, the male genitalia of T. molopiformis, T. molopinus, T. wie-demanni, and T. rebellis, including also newly described species, as well as female genitalia of Molopsis are described andillustrated. All available type material is listed and represented by habitus photographs.As a result, 9 monotypic species of Molopsis are recognized. Tapinopterus rebellis (Chaudoir, 1868) and T. rebelliskumanensis (Reitter, 1884), formerly assigned to Molopsis are recognized as outgroup-taxa. The following new speciesare described: T. (Molopsis) aenigmaticus sp.nov. (Asian Turkey, „Armenia“ imprecise locality), T. (Molopsis) chaudoirisp.nov. (Asian Turkey, Bursa Villayet, Uludağ Mt., Sakarya (Adapazari) Villayet, Gökdağ Mt.), T. (Molopsis) oyukluensissp.nov. (Asian Turkey, Konya Villayet, Fasihan Pass), and T. (Molopsis) relegatus sp.nov. (Asian Turkey, Bolu Villayet,Mengen env., Dorukhan Pass). The following nomenclatural acts are also proposed: Tapinopterus (Molopsis) molopinus (Chaudoir, 1868) = Tapinopterus (Molopsis) dipojranus brussanus Straneo, 1984, syn.nov.; Tapinopterus (Molopsis)

During the examination of hitherto undetermined specimens, six new species were found: Gnathifera fuscostriata sp. nov., G. luridicapitella sp. nov., G. montana sp. nov., G. robinsoni sp. nov., Epermenia (Epermeniola) macrodentata sp. nov., Gaedikermenia australica sp. nov. Ochromolopis paropsias Gaedike, 1972 is a new synonym of Gnathifera opsias (Meyrick, 1897). The taxa epispora Meyrick, 1897 and parasitica Meyrick, 1930, previously placed in the genus Epermenia, are transferred to Gaedikermenia Sohn & Wu, 2015. The male genitalia of Gnathifera bidentella (Gaedike, 1981) and G. acacivorella (Gaedike, 1968), and the female genitalia of G. pseudaphronesa (Gaedike, 1972) and G. queenslandi (Gaedike, 1968) are described and illustrated for the first time. First records within Australia are established for nine species. New host plants are recorded for Gnathifera eurybias (Meyrick, 1897), G. bipunctata (Gaedike, 1968), G. opsias (Meyrick, 1897), Paraepermenia santaliella Gaedike, 1968 and Gaedikermenia epispora (Meyrick, 1897). Now 25 Epermeniidae species are known from Australia. The systematic and generic affiliation of Epermenia xeranta Meyrick, 1917, is still uncertain.

The taxonomy of several Ancylosis species is revised. Four new synonyms are established: Ancylosis brunneonervella Roesler, 1970 syn. nov. of Ancylosis albicosta (Staudinger, 1870); Ancylosis psammicola (Roesler, 1970) syn. nov. of Ancylosis leucocephala (Staudinger, 1879); Ancylosis unicolorella (Roesler, 1970) syn. nov. of Ancylosis pallida (Staudinger, 1870). The following taxa are re-instated as separate species: Ancylosis delicatella (Möschler, 1860) spec. rev., stat. nov. and Ancylosis ciliatella (Zeller, 1872) spec. rev., stat. nov. are taken out from synonymy with Ancylosis rhodochrella (Herrich-Schäffer, 1852); Ancylosis deliciosella (Caradja, 1910) spec. rev., stat. nov. is taken out from synonymy with Ancylosis hellenica (Staudinger, 1870); Ancylosis macedonica (Schawerda, 1937) spec. rev., stat. nov. is taken out from synonymy with Ancylosis muliebris (Meyrick, 1937). Heterographis costalbella Amsel, 1954—the junior homonym of Heterographis costalbella Mabille, 1906, is taken out from synonymy with Ancylosis syrtella (Ragonot, 1887) and re-instated as separate species under replacement name Ancylosis amseli Yepishin, 2020 nom. nov. Ancylosis ciliella (Amsel, 1961) syn. nov. is transferred from synonymy with A. rhodochrella to synonymy with A. delicatella. Female genitalia of A. amseli and A. delicatella as well as male genitalia of A. deliciosella and genitalia of both sexes of A. ciliatella are described for the first time. Ancylosis deliciosella is recorded as new for Iran, A. delicatella—for Azerbaijan and Kazakhstan, Ancylosis rhodochrella (Herrich-Schäffer, 1852)—for Georgia, Ancylosis larissae Bidzilya, Budashkin & Yepishin, 2019—for Russia, Kazakhstan, Iran, Afghanistan, Mongolia and China, and Ancylosis yerburii (Butler, 1884) is new for Russia and Kazakhstan.

AbstractThe taxonomy, phylogeny and zoogeography of the thirteen species of the subgenus Schoyenia known from the Holarctic region are reviewed. Four species are described as new: X. thula from northern U.S.S.R. and northern Canada; X. woodi from Yukon Territory, Canada; X. magadanensis from Chukotka, U.S.S.R., and X. fergusoni from Alaska. A new subspecies of X. lyngei. Xestia lyngeí aborigenea from Magadanskaya Oblast', is described. Three species and five generic names are placed in synonymy for the first time and seven new combinations are proposed. Two lectotypes are designated. Illustrations of adults and male genitalia, and range maps, are given for each species. Female genitalia of nine species are illustrated. The larvae of four species, X. intermedia (Konon.), X. aequaeva (Benj.), X. bryanti (Benj.) and X. lyngei (Reb.) are described and illustrated; the cremasters of the pupae are also described and illustrated.

A New Species

The spider genus Austrochilus comprises only six species known from Chile and Argentina. Here, we describe a new species, Austrochilus parwis sp. n., based on a single male and several females. The new species was found in Chile (Region IX) and, based on characters in the male and female genitalia, seems to be closely related to A. forsteri Grismado, Lopardo & Platnick, 2003. The female genitalia were investigated using X-ray microscopy, revealing for the first time the internal organization of austrochiline female genitalia. Furthermore, we provide a comparative documentation of the male genitalia of austrochilines based mainly on type material, and comment on the recently proposed nomenclatorial changes to the family name Austrochilidae.

Six species of Pseudacroclita Oku are reported from China, two of which are described as new: P. damingshana, sp. nov., and P. mastoidea, sp. nov. Photographs of the adults and genitalia of the two new species are provided. Two keys to Chinese species of Pseudacroclita are given, one based on male genitalia and the other on female genitalia. Non-deciduous spiculate cornuti in the phallus are reported for the first time in Pseudacroclita. All specimens examined are deposited in the Insect collection, Nankai University, Tianjin, China.
