Summary: 87 of Oecophoridae s.l. (Oecophoridae s. str., Amphisbatidae, Chimabachidae, ) are listed for the modern Volgo-Ural fauna. 67 species are recorded from the region in addition to Eversmann ’s list from 1844.

Zusammenfassung: 87 Arten der Oecophoridae s.l. (Oecophoridae s. str., Amphisbatidae, Chimabachidae, Depressariidae) werden fur die rezente Volgo-Ural-Fauna aufgefuhrt. Die Liste von E versm ann (1844) wird durch diese Arbeit um 67 Arten erweitert.

Introduction: This paper is the tenth in a series of publications', dealing with the composition of the present-day fauna of oecophorid and their relatives in the Middle Volga and the south-western Cisurals. This region comprises of the administrative divisions of Astrakhan-, Volgograd-, Saratov-, Samara-, Uljanovsk-, Orenburg-, Uralsk- and Atyraus- (=Gurjev) Districts, together with Tataria and Bashkiria. As was accepted in previous parts of this series, only material reliably labelled and spanning the last 25 years was used for this study. The main collections are those of the authors: V. A n ik in (Saratov, Volgograd and Astrakhan Distr.), S. Sachkov (Samara Distr.), V. Z o lo tuhin (Uljanovsk and Astrakhan Distr.) and A. L vo vsky (Astrakhan and Orenburg Distrs). For the same territories we also made use of literature data (J u n n ila in en & N upponen, 1999). All the data from the XIX and early XX Centuries was taken into account but only as a reference (as pointed in others parts of the cycle). While completing this list we also used the informations given in the recent papers of this region (L vovsky & Sach ko v, 1994; L v o vsky, 2001, 2003; A n ik in & Sarano va, 2003; Z o lo tu hin & K h am d eev , 2001) and from a taxonomic monography (T o k a r , L vo vsky & H u em er, 2005). In the text, we follow the system proposed by L vovsky ( 2002).

The material in the collections of the Zoological Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences at St.Petersburg (under curatorship of L vo vsky) and partly of the Moscow State University (under curatorship of Mrs E. M. A ntonova) have also been examined for our study. Also the private collections of V. K upayev (Samara) and D. K omarov (Volgograd) were studied, to both of them we express our sincere thanks. We also owe special thanks to the curator of the Lepidopteran collection at the Zoological Institute of the Russian Academy of Science Dr. S. Yu. Sin ev (St.Petersburg) for supporting our work.

' This series was started in Atalanta 24: 89-120 (1993)

446 For the ease o f use, the information is given in form of a table, with the basic data o f all species mentioned from the Volgo-Ural region. Many localities have been renamed during the last 150 years, the most important ones are listed below:

Uralsk - later Chkalov - now Uralsk Samara - later Kujbyshev - now Samara Simbirsk - now Uljanovsk Sarepta - now Krasnoarmejsk of the Volgograd District Waskuntschatskoi - usually noted as Baskunchak (Astrakhan District) Zarizyn or Tsarizyn - later Stalingrad - now Volgograd.

Note: Spassk, usually interpreted as E versm ann’s estate not far from Orenburg, really might be also a town that disappeared under the Volga’s water during the erection of the hydroelectrostations and the following increasing of waters area. Before that Spassk had been situated in about 82 km ESE Kasan on the left bank of Volga.

z> O ______Y> 1 1 As a result of this study 87 species of oecophorid moths are listed for the modern Volgo- Ural fauna. 67 species are recorded from the region in addition to E versm an n’s list (1844). At the same time, we cannot affirm that all species of the families under this study are completely known now; moreover, we suppose some that much more species will be added to the list in the nearest future, especially those from the desert and semidesert zones of the Lower Volga and the South Ural. Some alterations of the list would be also caused by taxonomic revisions and the changes of the status of sole taxa.
