Stigmella nylandriella, Ectoedemia argyropeza, E. spinosella, Rhigognostis senilella, Argyresthia aurulentella , A. thuriferana, A. buvati, A. reticulata, A. submontana, Batia internella, and Mompha raschkiella are new for the Iberian Peninsula. New province records are given of 54 species (57 new province records in all).


Material and methods
The presented records are the results of the authors' (AL & ZL) two three weeks long visits to the Iberian Peninsula from 10th to 30th June 2017 and from 9th to 30th June 2018.Attention was paid only to northern regions of Spain from Gerona to Asturias and to Trás-os-Montes in Portugal.The moths were mostly collected at light (UV lamp 125 W, fluorescent tubes 8 and 20 W).Some species (specimens) were beaten from their host plants by day, adults of some species were collected on flowers or in stands of host plants, and empty mines or mines with larvae were found in some mining species.The determination was performed by the authors.The mining and other small moths are deposited in the collection of the first, material of Sesiidae in the collection of the second author.Therefore, collectors and the collection are not repeated for the individual species.
Western Palearctic (up to Central Asiatic) species, distributed throughout Europe, with exception of southern parts of the Balkans and Mediterranean islands.In the Iberian Peninsula recorded in Portugal: Trás-os-Montes and Beira Alta (CORLEY, 2015b).Larvae usually mine on Sorbus aucuparia, but also other Sorbus species, Cotoneaster, Crataegus, Malus, Mespilus, Prunus padus, and Pyrus are occasional or regular host plants (DE PRINS & DE PRINS, 2018).New species for Spain (Fig. 4,17).

PLUTELLIDAE
Rhigognostis senilella (Zetterstedt, 1839) ES: Huesca, Benasque-Cerler, 1 1, 21-VI-2018.Eurosiberian species, in Europe more common in central and northern parts, in southern regions mostly in mountains (AGASSIZ, 2013).Larvae develop on some Brassicaceae.BARANIAK (2016) considers R. senilella and R. marmorosella to be two distinct species, the first of them occurring in Greenland and Iceland, and the second one is broadly distributed.In such case, the Spanish record would belong to R. marmorosella.But AARVIK et al. (2017) do not confirm this view with regard to the barcoding results and the genitalia morphology.New species for Spain and the Iberian Peninsula (Fig. 6,18).
Species distributed in northern, western and central Europe, also known from some southern European countries (AGASSIZ, 2013).Larvae mine the needles of Juniperus, the bionomics are described by FRIESE (1969).New species for Spain and the Iberian Peninsula (Fig. 7,23).
Species with insufficiently known distribution, recorded in the Netherlands, Belgium, France, Switzerland and one specimen also from the Czech Republic (AGASSIZ, 2013).Larvae mine young shoots and needles of Juniperus spp., apparently both prickly and non-prickly species.New species for Spain and the Iberian Peninsula (Fig. 10,20,26).
Argyresthia submontana Frey, 1870 ES: Huesca, Espés, 1 0, 25-VI-2017.European species, so far known from some northern, western and central European countries (AGASSIZ, 2013).Larvae live in the buds and shoots of Amelanchier and Sorbus aria (FREY, 1870), Sorbus torminalis and Cotoneaster are also given as host plants (LEPIFORUM, 2018).The adults are very similar to A. sorbiella, but their forewings are nearly white and the markings are less distinct.New species for Spain and the Iberian Peninsula (Fig. 11 et al., 2013), also recorded in northern regions of the Iberian Peninsula to Galicia (MACIA et al., 2013).Its occurrence in Portugal is undocumented (CORLEY, 2015b).New species for Portugal.
