Depressariidae

Agonopterix ferocella (Chrétien, 1910) (Fig. 1) – Peter Buchner, while re-vising the material of the largest collections for his work in preparation about the European Depressariidae, noticed that the material of Agonopterix laterella ([Denis et Schiff ermüller], 1775) in the Hungarian Natural History Museum (HNHM) was mixed up with another species, Agonopterix ferocella (Chrétien, 1910). Discovered recently in Switzerland (Sonderegger 2013), A. ferocella was unknown from Hungary until now.

Buchner tagged with his identifi cation labels the specimens of HNHM from Kaposvár (29.VIII.1948, leg. Pazsiczky) and Sümeg (VIII.1954, leg. Barkóczi). Additional material were identifi ed by the fi rst author, as follows. Baranya coun-ty: Mecsek-hegység [= Mecsek Mountains], Vasas II, 25 and 28.IV.1966, coll. Balogh. – Tolna county: Fácánkert, 25.V.1961, fénycsapda [= light trap].

Th e fi rst author found several A. ferocella specimens in the material col-lected by the light traps of the Hungarian Forest Research Institute (ERTI). Th e Microlepidoptera collection of the Mátrafüred Experimental Station of ERTI har-

New data to the Microlepidoptera fauna of Hungary, part XVIII 117


Flight time is from July to May (aft er hibernation). Host plants: Carlina acanthifolia, Cirsium ferox and Cirsium vulgare (Asteraceae). To be placed next to Agonopterix laterella [(Denis & Schiff ermüller], 1775) in the Hungarian checklist (Szabóky et al. 2002). Proposed Hungarian name: aszatrágó laposmoly.

Depressaria sordidatella Tengström, 1848 (Fig. 2) – Vas county: Őrségi Nemzeti Park [= Őrség National Park], Szakonyfalu, 21.VIII.1993, leg. SzCs. DNA Barcode TLMF Lep. 23189; same locality and collector, 27.VIII.1994. – Among nearly one hundred Depressariidae specimens sent to Buchner for identifi cation, he found two specimens of D. sordidatella. Th ey were taken at Hgl 125W light, close to the brook in the vicinity of Szakonyfalu. Host plants: Anthriscus, Peucedanum, Aegopodium, Pastinaca, Chaerophyllum, Heracleum sphondylium, Angelica (Apiaceae). Th is moth species is widespread in Europe (Lvosky & Yalava 1993) but absent from Ireland, Portugal, Belgium, the Ukraine and the Balkan Peninsula. It had been also known from neighbour-ing countries Austria and Slovakia so its appearance in Hungary was not unex-pected. Wingspan: 12–22 mm. Univoltine, fl ight time in July and August. To be placed next to Depressaria olerella Zeller, 1854 in the Hungarian checklist. Proposed Hungarian name: turbolya-laposmoly.

Elachistidae

Elachista eleochariella Stainton, 1851 (Fig. 3) – Th e light trap of ERTI has been operating for more than ten years in the Zemplén Mountains, at Kishuta. It is situated in the valley of the Kemence Stream, at the once-existed forestry sta-tion, with the light source of a 125 W Hgl bulb. Th e sole E. eleochariella specimen

was collected by this light trap (3.VIII.2004). – Distributed mainly in Northern Europe (Norway, Denmark, Sweden, Finland, Lithuania, Latvia, Germany, Great Britain, Ireland), but present also in France and Austria. Host plants: Carex pani-cea, Carex fl acca, Eleocharis palustris and Eriophorum angustifolium (Cyperaceae) Wingspan: 8.5 mm. Flight time: July–August. To be placed next to Elachista utonella Frey, 1856 in the Hungarian checklist (Szabóky et al. 2002). Proposed Hungarian name: csetkáka-fűaknázómoly.

Gelechiidae

Anarsia innoxiella Gregersen et Karsholt, 2017 (Fig. 4) – In 2017, Anarsia lineatella Zeller, 1839 was split into two taxa and a new species was described by Gregersen & Karsholt (2017) as A. innoxiella.

Anarsia innoxiella is highly similar to A. lineatella, but the markings of the forewing are more contrasted and distinctively elongated parallel to dorsum. Flight time: June to August. Host plant: Acer campestre but supposedly also on other Acer species. To be placed next to Anarsia lineatella in the Hungarian checklist (Szabóky et al. 2002). Proposed Hungarian name: juharmoly.

Heliozelidae

Coptodisca lucifl uella Clemens, 1860 (Fig. 5) – Th e most signifi cant novelty of 2017 in the family Heliozelidae was the fi nding of this species (Takács et al. 2017). Th is species was introduced from the USA to Italy where it was recorded for the fi rst time in 2011. It reached Hungary because of its north-eastern expan-sion but further appearance is not recorded yet. Th e species was found in more than 100 localities in Hungary (Fig. 6).

Wingspan: 4–6 mm. Host plant: Juglans regia, but also J. nigra. Th e larva makes a blotch-mine, which is noticeable on both sides of the leaf. Before pu-pation, the larva cuts out a characteristic oval hole from the leaf to prepare a case, and crawls away with this case to the branches or to the trunk. Presumably bivoltine in Hungary. To be placed next to Antispila treitschkiella (Fischer von Röslerstamm, 1843) in the Hungarian checklist (Szabóky et al. 2002). Proposed Hungarian name: dióaknázó fényesmoly.

Tortricidae

Epiblema fuchsianum (Rössler, 1877) (Fig. 7) – On 9 May 2018, in Esztergom, Sípoló-hegy (Bartikút dűlő) [Sípoló hill (Bartikút lane)] the fi rst author was col-

Fig. 6. Localities of Coptodisca lucifl uella Clemens, 1860 in Hungary

Fig. 7. Epiblema fuchsianum (Rössler, 1877)



lecting with 125 W Hgl light. Nearly 110 species, characteristic amount for the season, came to light. At dawn a tortricid specimen arrived, which had unusually light hindwing. Aft er setting it was identifi ed as Epiblema fuchsianum (Rössler, 1877) by the fi rst author.

According to Karsholt & Razowski (1996) this species was found in Europe in the following countries: former states of USSR, France, Italy, Switzerland, Austria, Germany, Slovakia, Romania and Bulgaria. Five years later Razowski (2001) mentioned the species from Hungary, without proper loca-tion. Pastorális et al. (2016) did not include E. fuchsianum in their checklist. Th erefore the specimen caught in Esztergom should be regarded as the fi rst ex-act record of E. fuchsianum from Hungary. Host plant: Chamaecytisus (Cytisus) (Fabaceae). Wingspan: 13–18 mm. Flies from April to July (perhaps bivoltine). To be placed next to Epiblema foenella (Linnaeus, 1758) in the Hungarian check-list. Proposed Hungarian name: zanót-tükrösmoly.
