Abstract

In the contemporary maps of the distribution of Zygaena ephialtes (Linnaeus, 1767) there is a large gap between the Ural Mountains and points in the surroundings of Omsk in western Siberia (to the East of Omsk). Our investigation of the historical material collected by S. M. Tshugunov and now deposited in the Omsk State Agrarian University named after P. A. Stolypin shows that the determination of specimens of “Zygaena ephialtes” from the surroundings of Omsk are based on misidentifications of Zygaena cynarae (Esper, 1789) and Zygaena centaureae Fischer von Waldheim, 1832.
