Male genitalia (Fig. 12). Uncus medium-long, strong, curved near base, then nearly straight, and tapered towards finely hooked apex. Tegumen long, narrow, peniculi well-developed but short, rather triangular with broad base and straight distal extension; vinculum short, wide quadrangular. Valvae with apical processi strongly asymmetrical; valva elongated, distally rather quadrangular with rounded apex, narrowed towards base; sacculus long, narrow, sclerotised, with short and fine medial crest at base of editum. Editum broadly triangular, its apex somewhat recurved and pointed, densely covered with sensory setae. Left valva with broad and relatively short, pointed, more or less half-cone-like apical process of ampulla-harpe complex, this process is considerably smaller, almost flattened (only slightly arched) and rather quadrangular with fine, short postero-apical extensions producing an M-shaped contour. Acdeagus long, tubular, slightly constricted at middle; sinus penis elongated, basally rounded. Ventral edge of carina penis rather beak-shaped, with a few minute teeth at middle. Vesica everted dorsally, composed from four variably shaped basal and medial diverticula and a large posterior diverticulum; two of the basal diverticula covered by numerous fine spiculi, dorsal surface of large diverticulum by a large number of stronger, pointed teeth. Female genitalia (Fig. 17). Ovipositor medium-long, broad, rather weakly sclerotised; papillae anales densely hairy; apophyses slender, straight, long. Antrum shortly funnel-shaped, membranous; ostium bursae with broad, rounded, button- (or lentil-) shaped, sclerotised dorsal plate (ligula). Ductus bursae wide and short, somewhat tapering posteriorly, most parts soft and membranous, anterior section of ventral surface with fine sclerotised patches fused into a larger but diffuse plate. Ap pendix bursae lerge, subconical, strongly folded-rugose, with fine but clearly recognisably sclerotisation; corpus bursae subspherical-ovoid, membranous. Signum medium-long, strong, crescentic, only slightly arcuate, situated ventrally at two-thirds. Eighth sternite with bilobed lodix plate, its sinus widely U-shaped; eighth tergite broadly calyculate with straight posterior margin and very fine median suture. Bionomics - Poorly known. Two freshly emerged specimens were found in the midsummer period, the third, similarly fresh-looking female was collected just after the melting of the snow in April. According to the bionomic data of the other members of the genus, the moth appears at the early summer, but aestivates and becomes active in the second part of the summer, then hibernates and re-emerges in early spring. They inhabit the medium-high, xerotherm rocky slopes; the moths were collected at light. Nothing is known about the early stages, the supposed foodplants are Astragalus species growing densely at the collecting sites. Distribution - The species is found in the eastern part of the Pakistani Hindukush (close to the Wakhan area) and the Naltar valley in the western Karakoram. Autophila turcomana sp. n.
