New species of leaf-mining Phyllonorycter (LepidopteraGracillariidae) from Siberia feeding on Caragana (Fabaceae).


ABSTRACT: During a DNA barcoding campaign of leaf-mining Gracillariidae from the Asian part of Russia, a new species of Phyllonorycter Hübner, feeding on the Siberian pea shrub, Caraganaarborescens Lam. (Fabaceae) was discovered in Siberia. Here, this taxon is described as Phyllonorycterivani sp. n. Among Fabaceae-feeding Phyllonorycter, so far only P.caraganella (Ermolaev) has been known to develop on Caragana. Phyllonorycterivani and P.caraganella show a large divergence in morphology (external and male genitalia) and barcode region of the mtDNA-COI gene (8.6%). They feed on different host plants species and have different ranges in Russia. We show that DNA barcode data weakly supports the Fabaceae-feeding species groups. In addition, we show that morphologically (strongly) and genetically (weakly), P.ivani has affinity to the haasi species group, a West Palearctic group with asymmetrical male genitalia.
