The subspecies Coscinia c. benderi, C. c. ibicencaand C. c. rippertiiare discussed separately below, and the studied material of these taxa is mentioned there.
Diagnosis.Female genitalia with a V-shaped longitudinal notch in the posterior edge of the ductus bursae sclerotisation, near the contact area with the sterigma; notch absent in all other Cosciniaspecies.
Description. Imago ( Figs 1–2).Average wingspan 38.13 mm(n=15; 36–40 mm). Genitalia ( Figs 29).As for the genus, female genitalia with the corpus bursae divided symmetrically by the strongly sclerotized spinose band, with a weakly sclerotized ductus seminalis, and with a V-shaped longitudinal notch in the posterior edge of the ductus bursae sclerotisation. Immature stages ( Fig. 45).The last instar larva measures 20–24 mm. Dorsal area dark with a longitudinal white dorsal line that may extend slightly to the sides; lateral and ventral sides reddish brown to yellowish brown; verruca D1, D2, SD1 dark brown, L1, L2, L3 light brown. Head capsule and thoracic legs dark brown; abdominal prolegs with 15 to 17 longer nails. Pupa of both sexes light brown and straight; tips of the antennae and pterothecae in contact with each other. Molecular data.Intraspecific COI p-distances range from 0% to 7.99%, with an average of 4.09% ( Tab. 3). The genetic concept of C. cribrariacurrently comprises six different BINs (black vertical bars on the right side of Fig. 62): AAT9511 with 14 specimens, ACM5829 with two specimens, ABZ5211 with 12 specimens, AAD9041 with 13 specimens, AAD9042 with 28 specimens, and ACE7017 with seven specimens. BIN ACE7017 is nested within AAD9042. None of the three subspecies of C. cribrariaconsidered in this study have a unique BIN: C. c. benderiis part of AAD9042, and C. c. ibicencaand C. c. rippertiishare the BIN AAT9511 together with two specimens from the French Provence-Alpes-Côte d’Azurwhich could not be investigated morphologically. Three cases of sympatric occurrence of specimens assigned to different BINs are found in our dataset: two of the six specimens collected at Umhausen ( Tyrol, Austria) are part of BIN AAD9042, while the other four specimens are part of BIN ABZ5211; two of the three specimens from Kleiner Priol (South Tyrol, Italy) are in BIN ABZ5211, and the third is in BIN AAD9042; one of the two specimens from Cambre (A Coruña, Spain) is in BIN AAD9042, the other one in BIN ACM8529. These cases might be indications of ancient introgression. In wingless sequences, C. cribrariadiffers by a maximum of 2 nucleotides (0.6% p-distance) from the other Cosciniataxa investigated for this marker, i.e. C. c. rippertii, C. c. ibicenca, C. c. benderiand C. chrysocephala. Cosciniadiffers clearly in wingless from the investigated species in other genera, with a difference of 2.69% p-distance from Sagarriella romei, 2.69–3.28% from Spiris striataand 2.69–2.99% from S. bipunctata( Tab. 3). Coscinia cribrariais strongly supported in the Bayesian inference phylogram (1.00 PP) and moderately supported in the ML phylogram (82% BS). The species forms a weakly supported group (0.92 PP, 54% BS) with C. chrysocephala.
Biology.Univoltine in northern areas and colder localities, with a single generation from June to September, bivoltine in the southernmost warmer, Mediterranean regions, the first generation flying from March to May, the second generation from June to October. Both sexes are nocturnal and are attracted to artificial light. The larvae are polyphagous on various grasses, herbaceous plants and shrubs including Calluna, Erica, Genista, Rubus, Plantago, Taraxacumand Cistus( Ylla et al.2010).
Distribution ( Fig. 51).Trans-Palaearctic, present in most of Europe. The species is found in virtually every typeof biotope, at altitudes from 0 to 2,500 mand higher. Outside Europe it is distributed through the forest steppe belt of western Kazakhstanand the steppes of Russia, Chinese Turkestan, northern Mongolia, Yakutia and northeast China( Ylla et al.2010; Witt & Ronkay 2011).
Remarks. Coscinia cribrariais a polytypic species ( sensu Mayr, 1942) with a large morphological variability within its wide geographic distribution, which has resulted in the description of numerous subspecies, races and individual forms. We find this morphological diversity reflected in the COI genetic data, resulting in the recognition of six different DNA Barcode BINs in BOLD. A comprehensive in-depth study of the conglomerate of forms and races of this polytypic species is pending.
