Makharadze G. and Rostiashvili I.; 2 Jul 2023; CaBOL-ID 1035917; JLGT.</p><p>Barcoding.</p><p>A single barcode was obtained from the specimen with CaBOL-ID: 1035917 (BOLD:AEG2372) with the nearest neighbor in BOLD Systems D. variegata (BOLD:AEG2372, p -distance 0.16%) from Azerbaijan (Nakhchivan, Ordubad) (Kherimova et al. 2022).</p><p>Remarks.</p><p>Deleproctophylla australis exhibits considerable variability, especially the wing pattern in individual populations, which often lacks front-wing spots, making it challenging to identify the species using the key in Aspöck et al. (1980). Generally, D. australis is significantly larger than the similar species Deleproctophylla variegata . Also, specimens of D. variegata collected in Kyrgyzstan, from the collections of the Upper Silesian Museum in Bytom are smaller. Deleproctophylla australis has extensive brownish-red spots on both wings below the pterostigma. It happens that the spot on the forewing is missing, but the spot on the hindwing remains always brownish red. The spots on the hind wing of D. variegata are darker brownish black (visibly darker than in D. australis). Sometimes the wing is slightly smoky toward the base. There are also differences in the pattern of the pronotum and thorax. In the Upper Silesian Museum in Bytom collection, the two species show considerable, in the case of the above features, differences. In D. variegata specimens from other regions, such as Kyrgyzstan or Afghanistan, the wing membrane is smokey and the specimens are a little darker than the others, but these are more just colour variations. In Georgia, both of the species are highly likely to occur.</p><p>Prior to our work, there were no barcodes for the properly identified D. australis in BOLD Systems (or in GenBank). We assume that the very small p -distance between D. australis and D. variegata might be attributed to the potential misidentification of the specimen whose molecular data were mined from GenBank. Such cases are not uncommon and require an individual approach to address the issue, considering the possibility that the observed morphological differences could be indicative of a single species with variations across isolated populations.</p><p>Deleproctophylla australis is an element of the Mediterranean fauna that has previously never been reported in the Caucasus region. The nearest known report of the species lies in Edirne, Turkey (Popov 1977; Háva 2000; Canbulat 2007). Háva (2000), not knowing the publication by Alexi Popov, quotes the same specimens from the collection of the National Museum in Prague. In a European monograph of Neuropterida ( Aspöck et al. 1980) and a Catalog of Neuropterida of the Western Palearctic ( Aspöck et al. 2001) the authors incorrectly listed D. australis from Anatolia, which is a very broad geographical term, suggesting the occurrence of this species in almost the entire territory of Turkey, while it occurs in its European part near the border with Bulgaria. This species, most likely incorrectly, was recorded from the Caucasus and Middle Asia (Zakharenko and Krivokhatsky 1993). This information is not commented on in any publications by Zakharenko, Krivokhatsky, or other authors.

The identification via COI subunit was not straightforward, as the nearest neighbor in BOLD Systems L. coccajus (Denis &amp; Schiffermüller, 1775) (BOLD:ACD2658, p -distance 1.07%) is from France. The second-best match is L. macaronius from Cyprus (BOLD:ACD2658, p -distance 1.22%).</p><p>Remarks.</p><p>A highly variable species that requires revision. Of the numerous described subspecies and color varieties, there are currently three recognized taxa (Oswald 2023). An attempt to organize the taxonomy of L. macaronius of Crimea and related species from the Western Palearctic was made by Krivokhatsky et al. (2018). Unfortunately, in the taxonomy of this group, he adopted criteria that were inconsistent with the Code of Zoological Nomenclature, hence, despite many valid conclusions regarding population variability, they cannot be included in the taxonomy. In the Caucasus region, there is great variability within this species, which is also visible in the illustrations presented in this paper, e.g., Fig. 8 typical colored specimen, Fig. 9 white colored form (in Krivokhatsky (2018) [respectively] Libelloides macaronius kolyvanensis (Laxmann, 1770) m. typica and Libelloides macaronius kolyvanensis (Laxmann, 1770) m. alba).</p><p>Libelloides macaronius is a species with an expansive Ponto-Mediterranean distribution (Devetak 2007). It is the most widespread local species, reported from Georgia and all neighboring countries (Zakharenko and Krivokhatsky 1993; Aspöck et al. 2001). For species distribution within the country see Fig. 12.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/5322D07E1B73537095CDFA50624E4D44	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Due to the extraordinary morphological similarity of the Libelloides hispanicus and Libelloides ustulatus taxa, convergence at the subspecies level was postulated ( Aspöck et al. 1980). At the same time, due to the disjunctive nature of the distribution of these two species, some authors raise L. hispanus ustulatus to the species level ( Aspöck and Aspöck 1994; Szirák 1998; Aspöck et al. 2001; Canbulat 2007). Libelloides ustulatus is a species with a Caucaso-Anatolian distribution (Dobosz et al. 2017; Dobronosov et al. 2023). Unlike other local owlfly species, L. ustulatus occurs mainly in forest meadows at higher altitudes.
