New records of Lepidoptera from the Arkhangelsk oblast of Russia

Faunistic studies conducted in multiple localities across the Arkhangelsk oblast during 2014–2016 resulted in the discovery of 104 species of Lepidoptera not previously reported from this region. Especially noteworthy records include Phyllocnistis saligna, Depressaria ultimella, Dichrorampha insperata, Eversmannia exornata and Eublemma amasina.We also confirm records of 24 species which were known from old publications only, and we report new localities for 379 species. The known fauna of the Lepidoptera of the Arkhangelsk oblast now includes 1,140 species (604 species of microlepidoptera and 536 species of macrolepidoptera), which we presume to represent slightly more than a half of the potential diversity of Lepidoptera of the oblast
