Abstract
In the course of examination of material of the genus Avicennina Narzikulov, 1957 in the collection of the Institute of Zoology of the Republic of Kazakhstan (Almaty), A. turkestanica Akhmedov, 1994, previously known from the Alai Range, Uzbekistan was recorded for the first time for the fauna of Kazakhstan. Avicennina almatina sp. n. from cow-parsnip (Heracleum dissectum) is described as a new species from South-Eastern Kazakhstan (the Zailiyskiy Alatau Range). A new synonymy is established: Avicennina sogdiana Narzikulov, 1957 = A. spiraecola Akhmedov, 1994, syn. n. Keys to apterous and alate seasonal morphs of Avicennina are provided.
