Description
* Dielocroce elegans (Martynova, 1930)
(Fig. 3D and F)
Material examined: 1♀ IRAQ, Erbil, Choman, Khoshkan Village, 36°36’04,5”N, 44°56’11.8”E, 05.VII.2024, leg: Farhad A. Khudhur.
Remarks: This species is part of the Syro-Iranian faunal element (Aspöck et al. 2001). It has a wider distribution than the other species occurring in the Middle East, extending to Afghanistan and the Arabian Peninsula (Aspöck et al. 2001). It is reported here as a new record for Iraq.
The pterostigma of the forewing is entirely white (Fig. 3D). The subcosta is also primarily dark brown.
