چکیده
The subfamily Ethmiinae with a worldwide distribution has been considered as one of the subfamilies of the family Depressariidae. Ethmia with 124 known species in the Palaearctic region is the largest genus of the subfamily distributed all around the world. In this paper, twenty-one species of this genus are listed. Ethmia lepidella (Chrétien, 1907) and E. pusiella (Linnaeus, 1758) (subspecies E. pusiella pusiella (Linnaeus)) are reported from Iran for the first time and the data of their geographical distribution in Iran are provided. Furthermore, new data on the distribution of the Ethmia species previously reported from Iran is given. An identification key of the Iranian species based on the structure of male genitalia is also presented.
