Eupithecia addictata, an Asian pug moth confused in Europe with E. thalictrata (Lepidoptera: Geometridae)

KRAMPL F.
N/A

The Asian pug moth Eupithecia addictata Dietze is newly recorded from Europe (Austria, Slovakia, Greece) and distinguished from E. thalictrata (Püngeler) with which it was previously confused. Syntypes of E. addictata are examined and a lectotype (male) is designated. Variation of the species is discussed; no substantial difference was found between the European and East-Asian populations. The larva feeds on Thalictrum spp. New synonymy Eupithecia addictata Dietze, 1908 = E. danielata Schütze. 1959, syn. n. is introduced.
