Elatobia bugrai KOCAK 1981

Description

Elatobia bugrai KOCAK, 1981

The tineid material, kindly sent me for examination by my colleague KNUD LARSEN, contains a male of this species, from which were previously known only females. Following is given a description of the male genitalia (Figs 27-30):

Uncus parallel, apically truncated, with rounded edges, laterally on base a hook, curved apically; tegumen narrow, saccus very long; valva as long as uncus-tegumen, more or less parallel, costa straight, dorsal edge convexe, costa ends in pointed tip, basally the tip a sclerotized edge; phallus as long as uncus-tegumen-saccus, basally rounded, to apex narrower, with a row of appr. 15 strong sclerotized short hooks. VIII. Segment ventrally with stronger sclerotized apical edge, dorsally with a triangular sclerotization, basally with a long thin process. This structure is nearly the same as in fuliginosella.

The species is known only from Greece and Turkey.
