Gelechiaomelkoi sp. nov. – a new species from the Russian Altai Mountains related to the Nearctic Gelechiamandella Busck, 1904 (Lepidoptera, Gelechiidae), with a synopsis of Gelechia from the Altai Republic of Russia


ABSTRACT: Abstract Gelechiaomelkoi sp. nov. is described from the Ukok plateau and South Chuisky ridge in the Altai Mountains of Russia. The adult of the new species, including its male genitalia, is illustrated and compared with species most similar in morphology and DNA barcodes—G.sororculella (Hübner, 1817) and G.jakovlevi Krulikovsky, 1905 from the Palaearctic region, as well as G.mandella Busck, 1904 from Canada. This last species is redescribed based on adult specimens, including the genitalia of both sexes, and a lectotype is designated. Gelechiasirotina Omelko, 1986 is recorded from the Altai Republic for the first time. An updated list of six species of Gelechia from the Altai Mountains of Russia is given. Dorsal habitus photographs of all species are provided. The male genitalia of the lectotype of G.jakovlevi is illustrated for the first time.
