Description of a new subfamily of casebearer moths, Omphalopodinae subfam. n. (Lepidoptera, Coleophoridae), based on morphological and molecular genetic characters

Аннотация

Based on a complex analysis of both morphological and molecular genetic data, a new subfamily of casebearer moths, Omphalopodinae subfam. n., is allocated. Omphalopoda Falkovitsh, 1987, the type genus of this subfamily, is well distinguished by a set of apomorphic morphological characters and is clearly clustered between two genetically well differentiated groups of the family Coleophoridae: Tolleophorinae and Coleophorinae + Augasminae + Ischnophaninae + Metriotinae.
