First records of tiger and lichen moths (Erebidae: Arctiinae: Arctiini, Lithosiini) from Russia

In the present study, three Arctiinae species are reported from Russia for the first time: Lemyra imparilis (Butler, 1877), Lemyra infernalis (Butler, 1877), and Cyana hamata (Walker, 1854). Lemyra inaequalis (Butler, 1879) is excluded from the fauna of Russia as an erroneously identified species. Therefore, in total, the Arctiinae fauna of Russia contains 161 species: 81 species of the Arctiini, 69 species of the Lithosiini, 11 species of the Syntomini.

In the present study, three Arctiinae species are reported from Russia for the first time: Lemyra imparilis (Butler, 1877), Lemyra infernalis (Butler, 1877), and Cyana hamata (Walker, 1854). Lemyra inaequalis (Butler, 1879) is excluded from the fauna of Russia as an erroneously identified species. Therefore, in total, the Arctiinae fauna of Russia contains 161 species: 81 species of the Arctiini, 69 species of the Lithosiini, 11 species of the Syntomini.
