Abstract

The article reports a new record of Phytometra amata (Butler, 1879) from Altai Krai, Russia. The species is new to Western Siberia, Russian Altai, and the Pre-Altai Region of the “Catalog of Lepidoptera of Russia”. The boundary of the species range in Siberia has been extended by almost 500 km southwest. The article also provides a list of Noctuoidea species recorded in the locality of Phytometra amata collection. It also discusses biotopic preferences of imago and probable trophic relationships of Phytometra amata caterpillars in the Altai Krai.
