Abstract:

Fourteen species of the leaf-mining genus Acalyptris Meyrick occurring in the USSR are reviewed. The species fall into two species groups. Acalyptris piculus sp. n., A. brevis sp. n. and A. egidijui sp. n. are described. A. turanicus (Pupl.) is synonymized with A. lvovskyi (Pupl.). A key to the species, short diagnoses and figures of all the Acalyptris species occurring in the Soviet Union are given.
