ABSTRACT:

This research was conducted during 2009-2014 on the territory of the Kolsai Koldery National Park and the surrounding territories of the Northern Tien Shan. The purpose of the research was the determination of Larentiinae (Geometridae, Lepidoptera) fauna and the spread of its species. New fauna data of 64 species of small geometer moths from the Kolsai Koldery National Park and its surrounding territories are presented in this article. Thirty-four of them are new ones for this territory. Two of them are probably new even for the science itself: Thera sp., Horisme cf. nigrovittata Warren. The conducted zoogeographical analysis of small moths showed the predomination of Palaearctic species (11 ones). The other providing the diversity species are: Eurasiatic, Turkestani, Turonian, West-Palaearctic, 5 species per each group respectively. The other areal groups are less numerous ones. For example: European-Westasiatic – 4, Transpalaearctic – 3, Sub- Mediterranean – 2, Mediterranean – 4, Sub- Transasiatic – 1, Eurosiberian – 1, Sub – transevraziatskiya – 1, Sub- Transpalaearctic – 1, Holarctic – 1. 16 species are endemic and subendemic ones for this territory.
