Abstract: is study presents the records of 30 locally or rarely encountered species of
Pyraloidea in Poland deriving from the scientic collection of the Nature Education Centre of the
Jagiellonian University in Krakow. e most interesting records concern: Chrysocrambus linetella,
Anania luctualis, Parapoynx nivalis, Acrobasis legatea, Uresiphita gilvata and Scoparia ingratella.
is paper shows the second record of C. linetella aer more than 100 years since it’s last observation
and the only known contemporary record of A. luctualis within Poland.

INTRODUCTION
Natural history museum collections are a very important source of information,
such as changes in species distributions over the decades. At present, many of them
are being re-examined in detail for the purpose of providing information for bio-
diversity databases (for example GBIF or KSIB) and making scientic data on bio-
diversity accessible worldwide for anyone via web services. Biodiversity databases
gather valuable and oen very unique data about species distributions and habitat
changes (GBIF 2011; T 2015). Published records are preferred as they are
considered more reliable. e authors decided to collect and publish this informa-
tion on rarely and locally encountered species within Poland of Pyraloidea stored in
the scientic collection of the Nature Education Centre of the Jagiellonian Univer-

sity in order to provide trustworthy records to the KSIB project and widen the kno-
wledge about Lepidoptera occurrence in the country. Material in this paper, in most
cases, was chosen to ll the gaps in the distribution of many species appertaining
to the Pyraloidea superfamily in Poland (B & N ). On account
of the objectives of the KSIB project, some specimens were listed even if the species
was already found within the boundaries of a particular voivodeship.
Chrysocrambus linetella (F, 1781) was identied for the second time
in Poland and this is the only preserved specimen stored in a collection located in
Poland (Fig.1).

UTM: DA08, Złożeniec ad Pilica, 19.06.2006 (1 ex.), leg. W. K
e species inhabits fresh and damp habitats mostly in river valleys, oodplains,
wet woodlands and forest edges. Observed in most of parts of Europe, but more fre-
quently in the west and central part of the continent. Known also from Central and
East Asia (S 2013). Distributed throughout Poland but locally and usually not
abundant. e species has not been recorded from Lesser Poland since 1960 (B-

aer 1960 in the scientic collection of the Nature Education Centre. e specimen
listed above was collected within Silesia province. Nevertheless, authors decided to
include the one into the list because the locality where the material was gathered is
placed only 800 meters from the boundary of the Lesser Poland Voivodeship. Fur-
thermore, the species was observed less than two kilometres from place where the

tioned records are dated prior to 1960 (S 2013, S 2010, B

e species is native to East Asia. In Europe, occurs in habitats with boxtrees (Buxus
spp.), typically in parks, gardens and cemeteries (S 2013). Since the last decade,
it has been more and more frequently observed in Europe. It is assumed that the species
was introduced into the European continent with its host plant. One of the earliest obser-
vations in Europe comes from south-west Germany in 2007 (K 2008). In Poland,
it was found for the rst time in 2012 and 2013 in Michałkowa in the Owl Mountains,
Lower Silesia. In 2015 some individuals were also observed in Opole and Krakow (B
et al. 2016). In 2016 all developmental stages, in total number of over 1000 (mostly cater-
pillars), were found in many parts of Krakow (Old Town, Grzegórzki, Krowordza, Dęb-
niki, Osiedle Podwawelskie). In some places (e.g. Ogród Profesorski in the Old Town),
the complete defoliation of boxtrees has been observed (K, own observation).

A hygrophilous species occurring in marshes and wet meadows, especially
around lakes and river banks. Known throughout Central Europe, but it is usually
local and rare (S 2008, K R 1996). Observed mainly in

is is the second record of the species within the current Polish boundaries
aer more than 100 years of no observations. C. linetella was previously recorded
only in the Sudetes: UTM: XR36, Śnieżnik Mountain, 6.07.1874, one large male
from a meadow in the forest. is specimen was identied as Crambus craterellus
f. cassentiniellus (W 1874). In the past, the species in question was treated
as a form of the sister species C. craterella which can be easily confused with each
other. e main dierence lies in the external appearance of the wings apex pat-
tern. In the case of worn specimens, examination of the genital structure is required
(B ). e latter species has also been formerly recorded in Poland but
only a few times and all of these records are dated prior to 1960 (B 1956).
C. linetella is a quite common and abundant species in many south-European
regions, especially within warm, dry, grassy and open habitats. e species some-
times has a tendency to take migratory ights. e nearest localities of common
occurrence to Poland are from Slovakia and the Czech Republic (S 2010;
S 2008, K R 1996). Crambus cassentiniellus (H-
-S, ) is the synonym of the discussed species mentioned in older
literature (B 1957, B 1958).

STRESZCZENIE
Niniejsza praca przedstawia dane na temat 30 lokalnie lub rzadko spotykanych
gatunków motyli należących do nadrodziny Pyraloidea w Polsce. Prezentowane
informacje opierają się na zbiorach naukowych należących do Centrum Edukacji
Przyrodniczej Uniwersytetu Jagiellońskiego w Krakowie. Najbardziej interesujące
rekordy dotyczą, m.ni.: Chrysocrambus linetella, Anania luctualis, Parapoynx niva-
lis, Acrobasis legatea, Uresiphita gilvata oraz Scoparia ingratella. Praca przedstawia
przypadek drugiego stwierdzenia C. linetella w Polsce po ponad 100 latach braku
jakichkolwiek informacji na temat występowania tego gatunku w kraju oraz jedyny
współczesny rekord A. luctualis.
