Abstract

Assara hoeneella Roesler, 1965 (Lepidoprtera: Pyralidae, Phycitinae), found in Primorsky Krai near the village of Chuguevka, is reported for the fauna of Russia for the first time. In terms of the general character of the pattern, the species under consideration is close to the transpalearctic Assara terebrella (Zincken, 1818) and the East Asian Assara funerella (Ragonot, 1901). Apart from Russia, Assara hoeneella is also found in Japan and China. The given morphological characteristics of the species, illustrations of the appearance and genitalia of a female allow us to reliably identify the reported species. Data on the systematic position and distribution of the species are discussed briefly.
