Introduction

The ongoing research on Lepidoptera of the Iberian Peninsula performed by the authors brought some interesting results in 2017 and 2018. The important records are presented in this contribution, supplementing the publications by VAN NIEUKERKEN et al. (2004, 2010), LAŠTUVKA & LAŠTUVKA (2006, 2007, 2009, 2011, 2014a, b, c, 2015, 2017), LAŠTUVKA et al. (2000), CORLEY et al. (2006, 2007, 2009, 2012a, b, 2013, 2016, 2018), CORLEY (2014, 2015a), including summarizing works by VIVES MORENO (1994, 2014) and CORLEY (2015b). The discovery of 11 species new for the Iberian Peninsula, 14 species new for Spain, 2 for Portugal and 54 species new for individual provinces are given here.

Material and methods

The presented records are the results of the authors’ (AL & ZL) two three weeks long visits to the Iberian Peninsula from 10th to 30th June 2017 and from 9th to 30th June 2018. Attention was paid only to northern regions of Spain from Gerona to Asturias and to Trás-os-Montes in Portugal. The moths were mostly collected at light (UV lamp 125 W, fluorescent tubes 8 and 20 W). Some species (specimens) were beaten from their host plants by day, adults of some species were collected on flowers or in stands of host plants, and empty mines or mines with larvae were found in some mining species. The determination was performed by the authors. The mining and other small moths are deposited in the collection of the first, material of Sesiidae in the collection of the second author. Therefore, collectors and the collection are not repeated for the individual species.

New Iberian or country records

NEPTICULIDAE

Stigmella nylandriella (Tengström, 1848)

ES: Lérida, Valle de Arán, Tredós, 1 ♀, 14-VI-2017.

Species with European distribution, known predominantly from central and northern parts of Europe, occurrence data are missing from the Balkans and some Mediterranean islands (VAN NIEUKERKEN, 2013). Larvae mine on Sorbus aucuparia (Sorbus domestica and Malus) (e.g. LAŠTUVKA & LAŠTUVKA, 1997). New species for Spain and the Iberian Peninsula (Fig. 1, 14).

Ectoedemia argyropeza (Zeller, 1839)

ES: Lérida, Valle de Arán, Tredós, 1 ♂, 14-VI-2017.

Eurosiberian species, known throughout Europe, with exception of Mediterranean islands (VAN NIEUKERKEN, 2013). Larvae mine on Populus tremula (e.g. LAŠTUVKA & LAŠTUVKA, 1997). New species for Spain and the Iberian Peninsula (Fig. 2, 15).

Ectoedemia spinosella (Joannis, 1908)

ES: Soria, Aldehuela de Calatañazor, 1 ♂, 23-VI-2017.

Predominantly central and southern European species, unknown from Scandinavia (VAN NIEUKERKEN, 2013). Larvae mine on various Prunus species (e.g. LAŠTUVKA & LAŠTUVKA, 1997). New species for Spain and the Iberian Peninsula (Fig. 3, 16).

GRACILLARIIDAE

Phyllonorycter sorbi (Freyer, 1855)

ES: Huesca, Benasque-Cerler, 4 ♂♂, 3 ♀♀, 16-VI-2017, 2 11, 24-VI-2017; Lérida, Valle de Arán,

Tredós, 4 ♂♂, 14-VI-2017.

Western Palearctic (up to Central Asiatic) species, distributed throughout Europe, with exception of southern parts of the Balkans and Mediterranean islands. In the Iberian Peninsula recorded in Portugal: Trás-os-Montes and Beira Alta (CORLEY, 2015b). Larvae usually mine on Sorbus aucuparia, but also other Sorbus species, Cotoneaster, Crataegus, Malus, Mespilus, Prunus padus, and Pyrus are occasional or regular host plants (DE PRINS & DE PRINS, 2018). New species for Spain (Fig. 4, 17).

ROESLERSTAMMIIDAE

Roeslerstammia erxlebella (Fabricius, 1787)

ES: Huesca, Espés, 1 ♀, 25-VI-2017.

Eurosiberian species, in Europe distributed in western, central and eastern parts, up to southern Scandinavia in the north (KARSHOLT, 2013). In the Iberian Peninsula recorded in Portugal: Minho by CORLEY et al. (2012b). Larvae usually develop on Tilia, but Betula is also mentioned as a host plant (e.g. AGASSIZ, 1996). New species for Spain (Fig. 5).

PLUTELLIDAE

Rhigognostis senilella (Zetterstedt, 1839)

ES: Huesca, Benasque-Cerler, 1 ♂, 21-VI-2018.

Eurosiberian species, in Europe more common in central and northern parts, in southern regions mostly in mountains (AGASSIZ, 2013). Larvae develop on some Brassicaceae. BARANIAK (2016) considers R. senilella and R. marmorosella to be two distinct species, the first of them occurring in Greenland and Iceland, and the second one is broadly distributed. In such case, the Spanish record would belong to R. marmorosella. But AARVIK et al. (2017) do not confirm this view with regard to the barcoding results and the genitalia morphology. New species for Spain and the Iberian Peninsula (Fig. 6, 18).

ARGYRESTHIIDAE

Argyresthia aurulentella Stainton, 1849

ES: Lérida, San Lorenzo de Morunys, Enciens, 1 ♀, 25-VI-2018; beaten from bushes of Juniperus oxycedrus.

Species distributed in northern, western and central Europe, also known from some southern European countries (AGASSIZ, 2013). Larvae mine the needles of Juniperus, the bionomics are described by FRIESE (1969). New species for Spain and the Iberian Peninsula (Fig. 7, 23).

Argyresthia thuriferana (Gibeaux, 1992)

ES: Soria, Aldehuela de Calatañazor, 3 ♂♂, 1 ♀, 18-VI-2017, 1 ♂, 23-VI-2017, 5 ♀♀, 15-VI-2018, 2 ♂♂, 4 ♀, 19-VI-2018; collected at light or beaten from bushes of Juniperus thurifera.

Species described from southern France (Hautes-Alpes) (GIBEAUX, 1992) and still only known from there (AGASSIZ, 2013). Larvae probably mine the shoots of Juniperus thurifera. New species for Spain and the Iberian Peninsula (Fig. 8, 19, 24).

Species described from southern France (Hautes-Alpes) (GIBEAUX, 1992) and still only known from there (AGASSIZ, 2013), similarly to the previous species. Larvae develop on Juniperus, probably on non- prickly species. Argyresthia buvati is very close (conspecific?) to the eastern Mediterranean-SW Asiatic Argyresthiaimpura (Staudinger, 1879). New species for Spain and the Iberian Peninsula (Fig. 9, 25).

Argyresthia reticulata Staudinger, 1877

Species with insufficiently known distribution, recorded in the Netherlands, Belgium, France, Switzerland and one specimen also from the Czech Republic (AGASSIZ, 2013). Larvae mine young shoots and needles of Juniperus spp., apparently both prickly and non-prickly species. New species for Spain and the Iberian Peninsula (Fig. 10, 20, 26).

Argyresthia submontana Frey, 1870

ES: Huesca, Espés, 1 ♀, 25-VI-2017.

European species, so far known from some northern, western and central European countries (AGASSIZ, 2013). Larvae live in the buds and shoots of Amelanchier and Sorbus aria (FREY, 1870), Sorbus torminalis and Cotoneaster are also given as host plants (LEPIFORUM, 2018). The adults are very similar to A. sorbiella, but their forewings are nearly white and the markings are less distinct. New species for Spain and the Iberian Peninsula (Fig. 11, 27).

COLEOPHORIDAE

Coleophora gryphipennella (Hübner, 1796)

ES: Lérida, Valle de Arán, Tredós, larvae on Rosa sp., 14-VI-2017.

PT: Trás-os-Montes, Bemposta, 1 ♂, 16-VI-2018.

Transpalearctic species, locally distributed in central and southern parts of Europe (PRZYBYLOWICZ et al., 2013), also recorded in northern regions of the Iberian Peninsula to Galicia (MACIA et al., 2013). Its occurrence in Portugal is undocumented (CORLEY, 2015b). New species for Portugal.

NOCTUIDAE

Helotropha leucostigma (Hübner, [1808])

PT: Trás-os-Montes, Bemposta, 1 ex. observed, 19-VI-2017.

Eurosiberian species, distributed throughout northern and central areas of Europe, including the NE part of the Iberian Peninsula (ZILLI et al., 2005). Larvae develop on some hygrophilous plants, e.g. Carex, Juncus, Scirpus, Sparganium, and Iris pseudacorus. The specimen was observed at light near the hygrophilous herbal stands of the river Douro which corresponds to its ecological requirements. New species for Portugal.
