Lepidoptera, Plutellidae, Eidophasia infuscata, redescription, taxonomy, GreeceAbstract
Eidophasia infuscata Staudinger from Greece, previously regarded as an infrasubspecies or a subspecies of Eidophasia messingiella, is proposed as a full species based on the differences in the coloration of the head, the forewing patterns, and the male and female genitalia. Eidophasia infuscata is reported from Turkey for the first time. The first descriptions of the genitalia of both sexes are provided for E. infuscata. A diagnostic summary is provided with illustrations for three similar congeners, Eidophasia messingiella, E. infuscata, and E. albifasciata.
