Abstract

The character of distribution of 4 species of the subfamily Pangraptinae in the Middle Amur Region is discussed. All the species belong to the genus Pangrapta Hübn., occuring in the area of study at the north-western limit of their ranges. The northernmost record for Pangraptinae is the finding of P. obscurata Butl. in the basin of the lower Selemdzha River (Amurskaya Oblast). The known range is expanded up to the lower Zeya River to the west for two species – P. vasava Butl. and P. marmorata Stgr., and P. griseola Stgr. has not yet been reported farther to the west than the Middle Amur Lowland. Diagnostic keys are given for these species; brief diagnoses, and data on the bionomics and distribution are supplied.
