182 NATURA SOMOGYIENSIS Centroclisis lineata (Kirby 1903) resembles to Centroclisis speciosa Holzel, 1983 (Fig. 6) known from Oman. The later mentioned species was compared by HOLZEL (1983) to Centroclisis distincta (Rambur, 1842) which is rather larger and morphological distinct species. Table 1: The main differences between two similar species Character Centroclisis lineata Centroclisis speciosa Pattern on wings indistinct distinct Relative size compared to each other small large Pattern on pronotum solid narrow lines strikingly marked lines Apical part of hind wing slightly concave strongly concave Number of cross-veins in outer radial sector 15-16 16-18 Solter virgilii Navás, 1931 KIMMINS 1960, WHITTINGTON 2002 Material examined: 5<$ 1$ Island C.
