Abstract

The present study is carried out between 2017-2019, to determine Pyraloidea and Geometridae fauna of Mount Ararat and its surroundings. The studies are conducted at night with light traps and insect nets during the day. Samples are firstly identified by using their external morphological characteristics and genital structures of taxa are examined when necessary. As a result of the researches, 135 species from Pyraloidea superfamily and 70 species from Geometridae family are determined. Among these taxa, 65 species of Pyraloidea and 41 species of Geometridae are newly discovered in Lepidoptera fauna of Iğdır province. The number of pyraloid species in Iğdır province increased to 217 and the number of geometrid species increased to 118. Information on the new location records and distributions of Ancylodes pallens Ragonot, 1887, Aphyletes nigrisparsella (Ragonot, 1887), Calamotropha paludella (Hübner, [1824]), Cydalima perspectalis (Walker, 1859), Ephestia kuehniella Zeller, 1879, Gymnancyla nomiella (Ragonot, 1887) G. hornigii (Lederer, 1852), Myrlaea mimicralis (Amsel, 1950) and Tephris verruculella (Ragonot, 1887), whose distribution areas are limited in Turkey, are presented.
