description: <i>Ectoedemia (Zimmermannia) atrifrontella</i> (Stainton) <b>Biology.</b> Hostplants: reared from <i>Quercus robur</i> L. and <i>Quercus pubescens</i> Willd.. Adults have been collected in forests with only other species of <i>Quercus.</i> Larvae with a one or two year life cycle. Adults fly from June (earliest date 21) to September (latest 24). <b>Distribution.</b> Norway: Van Nieukerken and Johansson 1990; Latvia: Savenkov et al. 1996; Poland: Mazurkiewicz and Pa&amp;lstrok;ka 2004; Czech Republic: Lašt&amp;uring;vka and Lašt&amp;uring;vka 1991; Slovakia: Lašt&amp;uring;vka and Lašt&amp;uring;vka 1991; Portugal: Van Nieukerken et al. 2004a; Italy, Sicily: Lašt&amp;uring;vka and Lašt&amp;uring;vka 2005; Ukraine (Crimea): Budashkin 1988; Puplesis 1994. Th e record for Rumania (Diószeghy 1935) was earlier overlooked, it is here confirmed by material. We record it new for Russia and we also provide the first detailed records for Croatia and Greece. Records from Lithuania (Ivinskis 1993; Ivinskis 2004; Ivinskis et al. 1985) are dubious, because they seem to relate to mines only, which could also belong to one of the next two species. <b>Remarks.</b> In the Iberian Peninsula and S. France the species can be confused with the externally similar <i>E. hispanica</i>. Th e hairpencil and costal emargination in the male are diagnostic, as are the differences in number of setae on the female terminal segments. <b>Material.</b> <b>Croatia:</b> 33♁, 8&amp;female;, Krk, various localities, 1975–2008, G. Baldizzone, E. Jäckh (GB, RMNH, USNM); <b>Greece:</b> 1♁, Evro, 35 km N Alexandropolis, Kirki, 500m, 20–21.VIII.1985, A. Moberg (NHRS). <b>Portugal:</b> 2♁, 6&amp;female;, Algarve, pr. Bensafrim, 4 + 24.IX.1973, P. Grotenfelt; 2♁, 4&amp;female;, Baia Alentejo, Odemira, 1.IX.1973, P.
