Bradyrrhoa andreae sp. nov. from Central Italy (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae)

Abstract

The habitus of a series of specimens from Central Italy referable to the genus Bradyrrhoa Zeller, 1848, combined with the examination of their genitalia and with a DNA barcoding analysis performed on 6 specimens, allowed the identification of a new species, which is described here as Bradyrrhoa andreae sp. nov. B. imperialella is also reported for the first time in Umbria (Central Italy).
