The early spring aspect of the Lepidoptera fauna in the Republic of Tyva has not been studied until recently. Consequently, many species have not been recorded for the 25th region of Russia in the Catalogue of Lepidoptera of Russia. The article reviews 14 species of Heterocera from the Republic of Tyva, 12 of them being reported from the region for the first time. Eilicrinia subcordaria (Herrich-Schaffer, 1852) first reported from the territory of Siberia; Semidesertobia ubinica Beljaev, 2000 is the new species for the fauna of Russia. The paper features photos of rare and little-known species.
