An integrative taxonomic analysis of the European species of theAgrotisfatidicaspecies-group is presented with special reference to the European sister taxa ofA.fatidica(Hübner, 1824); in addition, a general overview of the entire species-group is given. The remarkable differences found in the barcodes of the Central and Western European populations ofA.fatidica(sensu lato) led us to recognise isolated species of theA.fatidicacomplex. Two new species,A.mayrorumsp. n.(Northern Italy and the French Alps) andA.mazelisp. n.(French Pyrenees) are described. The neotype ofA.fatidicais designated.Agrotisluehrivon Mentzer & Moberg, 1987 is treated as a subspecies ofA.fatidica(stat. n.).

AbstractThe European species of the subgenus Moerophora Foerster, 1869, of the genus Xorides Latreille, 1809 (= Xorides rufipes species-group, Wahl 1997) (Ichneumonidae: Xoridinae) are reviewed. A key to the species and notes on their distribution are provided. Seven species are recorded from Europe: X. (M.) austriacus (Clément), X. (M.) ephialtoides (Kriechbaumer), X. (M.) jakovlevi (Kokujev), X. (M.) rufipes (Gravenhorst), X. (M.) rusticus (Desvignes) and two new species, X. (M.) flavotibialis and X. (M.) ilignus, which are described. Macrosterotrichus bischoffi (Clément) is synonymized with Xylonomus rusticus Desvignes. Xorides (M.) rufipes is recorded as new to Croatia and Bosnia.

Two species within the Delia cardui species group were known to have males with the abdominal sternite III bipartite or very deeply incised, viz., D. bipartita Suwa from Japan and China and D. polaris Griffiths from extreme northern and high-altitude sites in North America. Two new species with this extraordinary character are described from northern Europe: D. rimiventris sp. nov. from southern Norway (Vest-Agder; Oppland) and southern Finland (Regio aboensis; Karelia australis) and D. bipartitoides sp. nov. from northern Sweden (Norrbotten). Further records of the latter species from Mongolia and Russia (Yakutia) are given. A discussion and redefinition of the Delia cardui species group and a key to male Delia with a divided sternite III are given.

Two new species of the the genus Euxoa Hübner, [1821] (subgenus Pleonectopoda Grote, 1873), Euxoa steideli sp. n. and Euxoa kodara sp. n. are described from the mountains of South and East Siberia. The new species belong to the Holarctic Euxoa westermanii species-group, which is represented in both the New and Old World mainly by alpine and subarctic species. The Palaearctic species of the Euxoa westermanii species-group are reviewed. The placement of Euxoa culminicola (Staudinger, 1870) in the subgenus Pleonectopoda is fixed. New data on distribution of E. (P.) churchillensis (McDunnough, 1932) in the Palaearctic from Chukchi Autonomy are presented. An annotated checklist list of the Palaearctic species of Pleonectopoda (Euxoa, Lepidoptera, Noctuidae, Noctuinae: Noctuini) is presented.

The noctuid genus Lophotyna Hampson, 1910 is downgraded to a subgenus of the genus Polymixis Hübner, [1820] and reviewed. Two new species are described from Myanmar: Polymixis (Lophotyna) pateikkaya sp. nov. and Polymixis (Lophotyna) aungi sp. nov. The Polymixis crinomima (Wiltshire, 1946) species-group is associated with the subgenus Lophotyna. Polymixis crinomima diluta (L. Ronkay, Varga & Hreblay, 1998) syn.nov. is synonymized with P. crinomima crinomima (Wiltshire, 1946). Polymixis jabaliya (Wiltshire, 1987) is downgraded to a subspecies of P. crinomima: Polymixis crinomima jabaliya (Wiltshire, 1987), stat. nov. Four new combinations are established: Polymixis (Lophotyna) albosignata (Moore, 1881), comb. nov., Polymixis (Lophotyna) hoenei (Boursin, 1956), comb. nov., Polymixis (Lophotyna) albirena (Moore, 1867), comb. nov. and Polymixis (Lophotyna) khumbuensis (Owada, 1981), comb. nov. A replacement name, Polymixis (s. l.) boursinella nom. nov. is introduced for Polymixis (s. l.) albirena (Boursin, 1944), homonym nov. A lectotype for Mamestra albirena Moore, 1867 is designated.

Stenoloba pontezi sp. n. belongs to the Stenoloba manleyi (Leech, 1889) species-group and is most similar to Stenoloba viridibasis Han & Kononenko, 2009 described from Yunnan. Adults, male and female genitalia of new species are illustrated.

The new genus Anabelcia gen. n. (Type species Belciana kala Prout, 1924) is separated from the heterogeneous complex called“Belciana” (sensu auctorum) and described here. Four new combinations are introduced by transferring four species to the genus Anabelcia: A. kala (Prout, 1924) (Belciana) comb. n., A. nepalensis (Haruta, 1993) (Belciana) comb. n., stat. rev., A. siitanae (Remm, 1983) (Belciana) comb. n. and A. staudingeri (Leech, 1900) (Polydesma) comb. n. The status of the subspecies Anabelcia kala nepalensis (Haruta, 1993) is is changed, the taxon is upgraded to full species (stat. n.). Two new species, A. thai sp. n. and A. taiwana sp. n. are described. The imagines, male and female genitalia of all species of Anabelcia are illustrated. The checklist of the genus Anabelcia is presented.
