The authors describe a new species, cryptic of Eupithecia sardoa Dietze, 1910, revealed by genetic studies. Eupithecia iberica sp. nov. was discovered in Spain (Ibiza and southern Andalusia). The species is described, and the male and female genitalia are presented. The new species is very close to Eupithecia sardoa, with which it is compared. The holotype is preserved in the collection of the second author and paratypes are distributed among several collections, including that of the Museo Nacional de Ciencias Naturales (Madrid, Spain). The authors take this opportunity to review the history of the discovery of Eupithecia sardoa and what is currently
knowledge about this species. The two Mediterranean taxa iberica sp. nov. and sardoa belong to a group of related species associated with Juniperus.
