In some cases comments are made on their faunistical and zoogeographical importance. With 22 figures. INTRODUCTION Within the framework between the Tolstoy State University, Grozniy and the Plant Health and Soil Conservation Station, County Komárom, Tata, the third joint expedition was completed in September, 1990. We planned to investigate the less known autumnal fauna of this range, since only scarce data of the autumnal noctuid species had been published from the northern territories of the Caucasus, based on the collectings of RJABOV in Daghestan.
