Ubsa-Noor, shore mead./ Nanophyton steppe, 15.vi.1995 (Jalava & Kullberg) (gen. slide 322/16, OB) (all MZH) . 1 ♂, Tajikistan, E Pamir Mts , 38°06′40′′N 74°15′49′′E, Mynkhadzhyr, 3950–4000 m, 22.vii.2013 (Nupponen & Heverinen) (gen. slide 385/16, OB) ( NUPP) .

Molecular data. BIN: BOLD:AEK6015. The intraspecific average distance of the barcode region is 0.0 % (n=11). The minimum distance to the nearest neighbour, an unidentified Scrobipalpa from Tajikistan (BIN: BOLD: AEC7919), is 3.04%.

Distribution. Russia: Altai, Tuva ( Bidzilya et al. 2002; Bidzilya 2009); Mongolia ( Povolný 1969), Tajikistan (new record).

Remarks. Although we have no new faunistic records of S. marmorella , we include the species in the list to illustrate the differences from the closely similar S. truncata and S. inexplictata sp. nov.
