Abstract

Four new species of Filatima Busck, 1939 are described from Central Asia: Filatimaarmata sp. nov. (Iran), F.subarmata sp. nov. (Pakistan, Iran), F.afghana sp. nov. (Afghanistan), and F.karii sp. nov. (Tajikistan). The hitherto unknown female of Filatimamulticornuta Bidzilya & Nupponen, 2018 is described. Recorded to occur for the first time are Filatimatextorella (Chrétien, 1908) from North Macedonia and Turkey, F.pallipalpella (Snellen, 1884) from Kyrgyzstan, and Filatimazagulajevi Anikin & Piskunov, 1996 from Kazakhstan. Filatimafontisella Lvovsky & Piskunov, 1989 is removed from the list of Russian Gelechiidae due to re-identification of the only record as F.multicornuta. An annotated checklist of Palaearctic Filatima species is provided.
