Abstract:

Revision of SE European species of the Ectoedemia (Fomoria) weaveri-group. Two new species are described: Ectoedemia (Fomoria) erzki sp.n. and E.(F.) empetrifolii sp.n. Ectoedemia (F.) deschkai (Klimesch, 1978) and Ectoedemia (F.) luisae (Klimesch, 1978) are redescribed. Adults, male and female genitalia and mines of all treated taxa are figured. Host plants of the newly described species are Hypericum olympicum L., H. perfoliatum L. and Hypericum sp. for E. (F.) eriki spa., and Hypericum empetrifolium Willd. for E.(F.) empetrifolii sp.n. Additional faunistic data are presented for Ectoedemia (F.) septembrella (Stainton, 1849) and E. (F.) deschkai.
