Larerannis orthogrammaria (Wehrli) View in CoL

( Fig. 12 View FIGURES 2–21 )

Larerannis orthogrammaria View in CoL : Beljaev & Mironov 2019: 247 (Sakhalin).

Material examined. 1 ♂, S Kholmsk, 12.X.2017 .

Distribution. Russia (S RFE: SW Sakhalin; S Khabarovskii Krai, Primorskii Krai), central European Part (Moskovskaya Oblast, introduced), Japan (Hokkaido, Honshu), South Korea,?N China.

Remarks. The finding of L. orthogrammaria in Sakhalin significantly expands its distribution range to the northeast. The species belongs to the late autumn phenological group of the moths; in Hokkaido L. orthogrammaria fly in October ( Sato 2011). The larvae are polyphagous on deciduous trees.

The wing pattern and the male genitalia of Larerannis albicans Nakajima & Wang, 2014 , described from Shaanxi ( Nakajima & Wang 2014: 56, figs 24, 37), almost match with those of the typical L. orthogrammaria , which was described from Primorskii Krai. Probably, the former name may be a junior synonym of the latter one.
