Fazekas I.: New occurrence Ancylolomia tentaculella (Hübner, 1796) in Hungary (Lepidoptera: Crambidae)
Fazekas, I: Ancylolomia tentaculella (Hübner, 1796) in Hungary 185 Diagnosis: Wingspan from 29 to 39 mm. A locally rather variable species. Forewing light ochreous and with a few black scales, with a conspicuous narrow creamy white median longitudinal stripe which is weakly angled towards tomus beyond the cell (Fig. 2). Antennae of male are deeply serrate (Fig. 3). Females are normally larger. Male genitalia', similar to those of A palpella but apex of uncus hook shaped, gnathos strong, valve with parallel margins, sharply bent upwards about in the centre (Fig. 4). Female genitalia', bursa copulatrix saccate, VIII tergite half-moon shaped, apophyses posteriors with papillae anales and thus unlike A. palpella. Similar species in Europe'. Ancylolomia palpella ([Denis & Schiffermüller], 1775), A. disparalis (Hübner, [1825]), A. tripolitella Rebel, 1909 and A. pectinatella (Zeller, 1847). Biology: The typical habitats are mainly in the salt meadows, open sand steppes with Scots pine {Pirns sylvestris) woodlands and saline pasture, edge of agricultural land. The third discovery, an outstanding achievement, was the finding of the meta-population that lives in the Körös branch of a river in the outskirts of Mezőtúr. A. tentaculella is very Fig. 3.
