Abstract

Host plants and cases of several species in the genus Coleophora Hübner, 1822 have remained unknown until now, while the latter structures provide important characters for identification. Host plants and cases of Coleophora lessinica Baldizzone, 1980 and Coleophora impalella Toll, 1961 were discovered by the authors and are presented here for the first time. New data on the distribution and biology of the two species in Hungary are given. Coleophora lessinica is recorded as new for the fauna of Romania. DNA barcode sequencing was performed for both Coleophora species and loaded into the BOLD System and to GenBank.
