Introduction

The fauna of moths of the Kemerovo Region has been studied extremely fragmentally. Several works, starting from the beginning of the XX century, provide the data on Bombycoid Lepidoptera (Tshugunov 1916; Vnukovsky 1926; Izersky 1999; Ryzhkova 2019; 2020; Shchetinina 2023a; 2023b). In addition, 4 species from two families are listed in the Red Book of Kuzbass (2021).

Based on original collections and analysis of literary data, in the proposed article we publish a list of Lepidoptera from the superfamilies Lasiocampoidea and Bombycoidea of the Kemerovo Region.

Materials and methods

The nomenclature and systematic position of taxa in the text are given in accordance with the catalogue of Lepidoptera of Russia (Sinev 2019). The distribution of species is given according to literary sources (Zolotuhin 2015; Zolotuhin and Evdoshenko 2019). All specimens are deposited in private collections of Alexey Korshunov (AKK, Kemerovo, Russia), Vladimir Polevod (VPK, Kemerovo, Russia), Vadim Ivonin (VIN, Novosibirsk, Russia) and Alexander Kostyunin (AEK, Kemerovo, Russia). Species firstly reported for the territory of Kemerovo Region are marked by asterisk. The map was prepared using the Google-Earth program (Fig. 1). Localities were imported into it from a csv-file. The numbers on the map correspond to the ordinal numbers of the locations in the list below.

Conclusion

Thus, 16 species of the Lasiocampidae family, one species from the Brahmaeidae family and one Endromididae species, 2 species of Saturniidae and 16 species of Sphingidae are reported to the fauna of the Kemerovo Region.

This list is not final and will certainly be supplemented with other species after systematic faunal studies are carried out in the studied area. For example, findings of such species as Phyllodesma tremulifolium (Hübner, 1810) is quite expected in the Kemerovo Region. This species is tend to steppe landscapes, but they often penetrate up to the northern forest-steppe zone through dry meadows (Knyazev 2020). In addition, the recently described Lappet moth Phyllodesma yakovlevi Zolotuhin, 2015, known from Altai and Tyva Republics (Zolotuhin 2015), is quite likely to be found in mountainous areas in Kemerovo Region.

Further targeted search for the listed species could increase the number of Lasiocampidae in the Kemerovo region up to 17–18 species. We also do not exclude the possibility of finding of Lemonia taraxaci ([Denis & Schiffermüller], 1775) in Kemerovo Region.
