Abstract
The article gives a revision on the species group Dyspessa salicicola (Eversmann, 1848) (Lepidoptera, Cossidae, Cossinae). The group comprises six valid taxa, namely D. salicicola salicicola, D. salicicola aschabadensis Daniel, 1953, D. saissanica Yakovlev, 2014, D. kostjuki Yakovlev, 2005, D. arabesca Yakovlev, 2005 and D. muelleri Yakovlev, sp. nov. (type locality: "Nord Jordanien, Totes Meer-Ostufer, Wadi Ibn Hammad"), united by a specific habitus (the yellow forewing with a remarkable pattern of spots). Detailed data on the distribution of all the species are provided, short diagnoses are given. The article is illustrated with images of specimens from different localities and male genitalia of all the considered taxa.

Introduction
Cossus salicicola Eversmann, 1848 (Lepidoptera, Cossidae, Cossinae) was described on the basis of single specimen "ich nur ein Exemplar dieses Spinners gefangen hatte... Ich kenne bis jezt nur den Mann" (Eversmann 1848: 211; Sinev et al. 2017: 410-411). The holotype and its labels are shown in plate 13, figure 14 (Sinev et al. 2017). Spuler (1910: 303) established a new combination: Dyspessa salicicola (Eversmann, 1848). Later, Silbernagel (1944) described from Makedonia (Lake Ochrid) Dyspessa salicicola f. lutescens Silbernagel, 1944, which was subsequently synonymized with the nominative subspecies (Daniel 1962). Daniel (1953) described the subspecies Dyspessa salicicola aschabadensis on a series of specimens from Turkmenistan ("Aschabad, Suljukli, Aidere, Merw") and Armenia ("Eriwan"). "Aschabad" was chosen as the type locality. At the further revision of Cossidae (Yakovlev 2005, 2014) based on significant differences in the structure of antennae and male genitalia, we described three species: Dyspessa kostjuki Yakovlev, 2005, D. arabesca Yakovlev, 2005 and D. saissanica Yakovlev, 2014. In this article we analyse in detail the taxonomy of the species group Dyspessa salicicola (Eversmann, 1848), united by a specific habitus (the yellow forewing with a remarkable spotty pattern), and describe a new species D. muelleri sp. nov. from Jordan.
Material and methods
Male genitalia were mounted in euparal on slides following Lafontaine and Mikkola (Lafontaine and Mikkola 1987). The imagoes were photographed using digital camera of iPhone 7. The genitalia preparations were photographed using an Olympus DP74 camera attached to an Olympus SZX16 stereomicroscope.

D. s. aschabadensis, Iran, Mazandaran Province (MWM); D. s. aschabadensis, Iran, Alborz Mountains (MWM).
Diagnosis. Extremely variable subspecies, distinctive in its big size (length of male forewing 11-14 mm, female 13-15 mm). Antenna bipectinate, setae 2-2.5 times longer than antenna stem diameter (in medium third). Forewing light-yellow, frame mottled, series (3-5) dark-brown spots discally. In rare cases, this series of discal spots completely reduced. Hindwing without pattern, colour from light-grey to grey. Valve apically lanceolate, with expressed crest on costal margin, proximal edge of crest sharply expressed, distal edge smooth; phallus 1/3 shorter than valve, poorly curved, gradually narrowing to apex (Figs 28-31).
Taxonomical remarks. We believe that the opinion of Daniel (1953, 1962) on the attribution of the Armenian populations to the subspecies D. s. aschabaden-sis Daniel, 1953 is incorrect. A large comparative material, including the serially studied male genitalia clearly showed the consubspecificity of Armenian (and other Transcaucasian and Turkish) populations with a nominative subspecies. There are minor differences in the wing pattern, the Armenian populations are characterized by a more stable spotty pattern on the forewing, than the specimens from the southern Urals, which have a very variable wing pattern (Figs 40-41).

Diagnosis. Subspecies differs in relatively small size (length of male forewing 10-13 mm, females not examined). Forewing yellow or dark-yellow, with mottled frame and series (from 3 to 5) dark-brown spots discally, often fusing into band, spots bigger than in nominative subspecies; root, discal and postdiscal area almost always with dense sputtering of grey or brown scales. Hindwing without pattern, colour from light-grey to grey. Valve apically lanceolate, crest on costal margin more expressed than in nominative subspecies, proximal and distal margins of crest sharp, well-defined; phallus 1/3 shorter than valve, poorly curved, gradually narrowing to apex (Figs 32-33).
Taxonomical remarks. We provisionally define all the Iranian specimens as the subspecies D. s. aschabadensis (Alipanah et al. 2021). Probably, the populations from northwestern portion of Iran can belong to the nominative subspecies, this suggestion needs a separate study.

Material: Holotype (male), "Nord Jordanien, Totes Meer-Ostufer, Wadi Ibn Ham-mad, minus 360 m, 30.v.1999, leg. G. Müller" (GenitalPräparat Heterocera MWM: 28.232).

Diagnosis. The new species is similar to the small species D. kostjuki and D. arabesca. The poorly expressed pattern of the forewing is similar to that of D. kostjuki, but the new species reliably differs in the male genital structure: the valve is not extended in the medium third and the bump on the costal margin of the valve is poorly expressed.
Description. Length of forewing in male 9-12 mm. Antenna bipectinate, setae 1.5 times longer than antenna stem diameter (in medium third). Forewing ochre-yellow, with mottled frame and series of poorly expressed blurred brown spots (2-4 in number) postdiscally, fringe yellow. Hindwing grey, without pattern.
Male genitalia. Uncus triangular, with poorly sclerotized apex; gnathos arms thick, of medium length; gnathos poorly structured; valve lanceolate, poorly curved, costal margin (on border between medium and distal thirds) with small bumpy process, sclerotized more than the rest of valve surface; transtilla process short, poorly curved, basally very thick, apically curved as a hook; juxta small, saddle-like; saccus semicircular, quite robust; phallus 1/3 shorter than valve, almost straight, poorly narrowing to apex, vesica aperture in dorso-apical position, in length about 1/3 of phallus, vesica without cornuti.
Female unknown.
Distribution. Northern Jordan.
Etymology. The new species is named after the well-known German entomologist, researcher in tropical medicine and fauna of Lepidoptera of Eurasia and Africa, Dr. Günter Müller (Munich).
Discussion
Members of the Dyspessa salicicola species group are widespread in western Palae-arctic (Fig. 42), the eastern limit of its distribution range lies in Eastern Kazakhstan and Northwestern China (D. saissanica). D. salicicola is the most widely distributed species of the group, however the question about the boundaries of its subspecies'
ranges remains open. It seems promising to conduct a molecular genetic study of this species group representatives to confirm the status of the taxa indicated here, as well as to clarify the subspecies affiliation of D. salicicola populations from the Transcaucasus and Turkey.
