description: Pyrochlora Warren, 1895
Pyrochlora Warren, 1895, Novit. Zool. 2: 90. Type species: Phalaena rhanis Cramer, 1777.
The genus is grouped within the tribe Nemorini according to Pitkin (1996), based on characters of male genitalia: a) the presence of central sclerotization (“midrib”) of sternite A8; b) rod-like or spatulate uncus; and c) costal sclerotization of valva. Pitkin (1996) discussed the genital characters of Pyrochlora in comparison with those of Tachychlora Prout, 1912. Generic characters of Pyrochlora include pectinate antennae in both sexes; weakly shaped, orange or brownish fillet between antennae; orange and brown colour of frons; olive green and grey to brown pattern of wings with a distinct orange, yellow or whitish patch subtornally in forewing and subcostally in hindwing. Hind tibiae with two pairs of spurs and bearing contrasting black tufts of scales at joints; inner spurs are longer than external ones, and distance between spur pairs shorter than the longest spurs. Male hind tibia with a hair pencil concealed in a rim and distally covered by a short apical projection. Tachychlora species share a white head color, contrasting black and yellow markings on hindwings, much longer, filiform uncus and sidewise projecting cornuti on aedeagus.

Solovievaia Vachard & Le Coze, 2018: 1-6 (nomen novum for Ovatella Solovieva, 1996).
TYPE SPECIES. — Profusulinella ovata Rauzer-Chernousova, 1938 by original designation.
ASSEMBLAGE. — The recovered Solovievaia assemblage in this study are as follows; Solovievaia arta (Fig. 9J), Solovievaia ex gr. nuratavensis (Fig. 9K), Solovievaia ovata ovata (Fig. 9L, M), Solovievaia ovata nytvica (Fig. 9N, O), Solovievaia simplex n. comb. (Fig. 9P), Solovievaia subovata (Fig. 9Q) and Solovievaia syzranica n. comb. (Fig. 9R, S).
DESCRIPTION
Test small to moderately in size and elongate-ovoid or cylindrical in shape. Thin three-layered wall with tectum, lower and upper tectorium. Septa plain across the centre of the test and slightly folded at the end of the axis. Chomata massive, symmetrical and subquadrate in shape.
REMARKS
According to Rauzer-Chernousova et al. (1951), the species group of the Profusulinella Rauzer-Chernousova & Belyaev in Rauzer-Chernousova, Belyaev & Reitlinger, 1936, which predominantly characterized by elongate test were classified under the “ ovata group”. Later, this group was transferred to the genus Ovatella Solovieva in Rauzer-Chernousova, Bensh, Vdovenko, Gibshman, Leven, Ya Lipina, Reitlinger, Solovieva & Chediya, 1996 by Rauzer-Chernousova et al. (1996) without any detailed taxonomic list. In recent studies, Vachard & Le Coze (2018) emended the name Ovatella as Solovievaia Vachard & Le Coze, 2018 because of the prior use of the name Ovatella for a gastropod genus Ovatella Bivona-Bernardi, 1832 by Bivona-Bernardi (1832). The identified species in this study, Solovievaia arta, Solovievaia ovata ovata, Solovievaia simplex n. comb. and Solovievaia syzranica n. comb., are included in the genus Solovievaia because of their morphologic features, particularly their elongate shells.

description: Genus Depratina Solovieva, 1996
TYPE SPECIES. — Schwagerina prisca Deprat, 1912 by original designation.
ASSEMBLAGE. — The Depratina assemblage in this study are Depratina chernovi (Fig. 10A, B), Depratina convoluta (Fig. 10C), Depratina dubia (Fig. 10D, E), Depratina paratimanica (Fig. 10F, G), Depratina posadai (Fig. 10H, I), Depratina prisca prisca (Fig. 10 J-M), Depratina prisca sphaeroidea (Fig. 10N, O), Depratina prisca timanica (Fig. 10 P-S) and Depratina sitteri (Fig. 10T, U).
DESCRIPTION
Test small in size and short-inflated fusiform to subspherical in shape. The wall thin and three-layered, composed of tectum, thin lower and upper tectorium. Septa thin and plain across the centre of the test, slightly folded only in polar region of last one or two volutions. Chomata massive, symmetrical and rounded to subquadrate in shape.
REMARKS
The dominantly small sized and nearly globular or shortinflated fusiform shaped Profusulinella species were referred to as the “ prisca group” by Rauzer-Chernousova et al. (1951). Later, the “ prisca group” was assigned to the genus Depratina Solovieva in Rauzer-Chernousova, Bensh, Vdovenko, Gibshman, Leven, Ya Lipina, Reitlinger, Solovieva & Chediya, 1996. The species belonging to the genus Depratina differ from other Profusulinella species by having relatively globular or short-inflated fusiform test, smaller L/D ratio and poorly developed chomata. Hence, in this study the species belonging to the “ prisca group” (Rauzer-Chernousova et al. 1951) and the species which have same features such as Depratina chernovi, Depratina convoluta, Depratina paratimanica, Depratina posadai, Depratina prisca sphaeroidea and Depratina dubia are assembled in the genus Depratina.

TYPE SPECIES. — Profusulinella aljutovica Rauzer-Chernousova, 1938 by original designation.
ASSEMBLAGE. — The described Aljutovella assemblage of this study is as follows; Aljutovella aljutovica (Fig. 11 E-G), Aljutovella arrisionis arrisionis (Fig. 11H, I), Aljutovella arrisionis molotovensis (Fig. 11J), Aljutovella artificialis (Fig. 11K, L), Aljutovella cf. cafirniganica (Fig. 11M), Aljutovella conspecta (Fig. 11N), Aljutovella cybaea (Fig. 11O, P), Aljutovella isvarica (Fig. 11Q), Aljutovella lepida novoburasiensis (Fig. 11R), Aljutovella pojarkovie (Fig. 12A, B), Aljutovella postaljutovica (Fig. 12C, D), Aljutovella priscoidea (Fig. 12 E-G), Aljutovella skelnevatica (Fig. 12H, I), Aljutovella splendida (Fig. 12J, K), Aljutovella cf. stocklini (Fig. 12L), Aljutovella subaljutovica (Fig. 12M, N), Aljutovella tumida (Fig. 12O, P) and Aljutovella typica Akbaş, n. sp. (Fig. 12Q, R).
DESCRIPTION
Shell moderately large in size and fusiform in shape. The three-layered wall consists of the tectum, lower and upper tectorium, and poorly developed diaphanotheca in the last volutions of some individuals. Septa plain to slightly folded in the central part of the test and folded in polar regions. Chomata massive, commonly symmetrical and quadrate in shape.
REMARKS
According to Rauzer-Chernousova et al. (1996), some species of the genus Aljutovella could be transferred to new genus such as Skelnevatella Solovieva in Rauzer-Chernousova, Bensh, Vdovenko, Gibshman, Leven, Ya Lipina, Reitlinger, Solovieva & Chediya, 1996 and Priscoidella Solovieva in Rauzer-Chernousova, Bensh, Vdovenko, Gibshman, Leven, Ya Lipina, Reitlinger, Solovieva & Chediya, 1996 without giving any species name except their type species, Profusulinella skelnevatica Putrya & Leontovich, 1948 and Profusulinella priscoidea Rauzer-Chernousova, 1938 respectively. These two species, which were described in the genus Aljutovella in the study of Rauzer-Chernousova et al. (1951), have been accepted by many authors (e.g., Putrya 1956; Bensh 1969; Grozdilova et al. 1975; Bogush & Yuferev 1976; Dzhenchuraeva 1979; Villa 1995; Leven et al. 2006; Fohrer et al. 2007; Davydov 2009; Leven & Gorgij 2011 and this study). One of the recent study of Kulagina (2008), the species skelnevatica is described under the genus Skelnevatella. The transfer of P. skelnevatica and P. priscoidea species to the new genus (Skelnevatella and Priscoidella) proposed by Solovieva (in Rauzer-Chernousova et al. 1996) is doubtful.

DESCRIPTION
Test small in size and inflated fusiform to subrhomboidal in shape with straight quite-sloping lateral sides and bluntly pointed to narrowly rounded and protuberant poles. All volutions coiled straight and relatively tight. The test of first one to two initial volutions spherical to subnautiloid in shape becoming the elongate towards the outer volutions. The outer shell shape is inflated fusiform. Proloculus is globular and small, with an outside diameter of 72 to 80 microns. The number of volutions is up to 4-5 in advanced specimens, and length ranges between 1.63 to 1.65 mm, diameters range between 0.94 to 0.97 mm and form ratios of 1.68 to 1.76. Wall is thin (0.02-0.035 mm in the outer volutions), three-layered and composed of a dark and thin tectum, dense and grey lower and upper tectorium (Fig. 12S, T). Septa plain in first one to two volutions while slightly folded in outer volutions. Chomata massive and quadrate in shape, their heights reach to half height of the chamber.
REMARKS
Aljutovella typica Akbaş, n. sp. differs from the other species of genus Aljutovella by its typical shape of test while it is slightly similar to the Aljutovella postaljutovica, differings by having narrower chomata and weaker septal fluting.

Type species: Tinea verbascella [Denis & Schiffermüller], 1775 by subsequent designation by Meyrick (1925) (see Sattler 1973: 229).
Description. Adult. Wingspan 16–36 mm. Segment 2 of labial palpus with a distinct ventral brush; segment 3 longer than segment 2, thin. Forewing rather slender with rounded apex; three black spots in fold and at ½ and 2/ 3 in middle of wing. Hindwing greyish, broadly trapezoidal, with hardly sinuate termen. Tergum I–IV with yellowish scales.
Male genitalia. Sternum VIII and tergum VIII a united ring; tegumen subrectangular, lateral margins subparallel, anterior margin with emargination; uncus large, partly setose, apex rounded; gnathos with a large hook; valva long, slender, straight, setose, ventrobasally with small bulge; sacculus digitate or thumb-like, curved, dorsally set with strong spines; juxta lobes rounded, setose, fused with anellus embracing phallus; saccus mostly short and slender; phallus slender, with oval base, apically flagellate; vesica without cornuti.
Female genitalia. Ovipositor short; papillae anales different in shape; apophyses posteriores about double length of apophyses anteriores; segment VIII broad, cylindrical, with strongly sclerotized band around posterior margin, ventromedially membranous; antrum tubular, membranous, more or less transversely wrinkled, ostium bursae broadening; ductus seminalis from the middle of ductus bursae; colliculum absent; ductus bursae long and narrow, variously coiled from ductus seminalis to corpus bursae; corpus bursae oval, spinose; signum an irregular plate of different shape.
Bionomics. Larva on Scrophulariaceae and Globariaceae. Nothris species seem to prefer open, sunny biotopes. Adults are attracted to light.
Distribution. Western Palaearctic, with only one species extending to southern Siberia. Most species occur in Greece and Turkey.
Remarks. The convolutions of ductus bursae should be observed before transferring the female genitalia into strong alcohol because they thereby become distorted.

In accordance with the generic definitions discussed by Ishii (1957, 1958), several species originally assigned to Fusulina were reassigned to the genus Beedeina in some recent studies (Villa 1995; Leven 1998; Leven & Gorgij 2008, 2011; and this study) based on their morphological features, such as the shell shape and lack of axial fillings. For this reason, Beedeina paradistenta which was originally described in the genus Fusulina by Safonova (in Rauzer-Chernousova et al. 1951) is considered as a species of the genus Beedeina in this study.

TYPE LOCALITY. — Gölbelen section of Hadim Nappe (BozkIr/ Konya, Central Taurides, Turkey).
STRATIGRAPHIC RANGE. — Carboniferous, Pennsylvanian, upper Moscovian, Podolskian.
OCCURRENCE. — Gölbelen section of the Hadim Nappe (BozkIr/ Konya, Central Taurides, Turkey).
DESCRIPTION
Test small in size and rhomboidal in shape with lateral sides and pointed to bluntly pointed periphery and poles. All volutions coiled tightly, and the rhomboidal shape of the test is preserved from the first volutions to the last one. Proloculus globular and large, with an outside diameter of 180-210 µm. The number of volutions is up to 4½- 5 in advanced specimens and length ranges between 1.70 to 1.85 mm, diameters range between 1.18 to 1.30 mm and form ratios of 1.31 to 1.57. Wall is thin (0.025 -0.035 mm in the outer volutions), four-layered and composed of a distinct tectum, a diaphanotheca which thickness gradually increases towards outer volutions, and relatively thick lower and upper tectorium (Fig. 13G). Septa regularly folded throughout the test. Chomata are massive, symmetrical and rounded.
REMARKS
Beedeina minuta Akbaş, n. sp. differs easily from the other species of genus Beedeina by its smaller test size.

Holotype deposited in Estonian Museum of Natural History, Tallinn, paratypes in NHMT and CAL.
Measurements: Wing span 22.0–25.0 mm in males, 27 mm in a female, length of antennal pectinations 0.45–0.48 mm in males, 0.25 mm in female.
Diagnosis: Externally the species is characterized by a large, continous, rectangular blackish marking along the anal margin of forewing underside (Figs. 18, 21). Other species have the ante- and postmedial lines marked by dark transverse lines between the discal cell and hindmargin of the forewing (if enlarged, not covering the origin of vein CuA2). Aedeagus with three bands of short and thin spines dorsally.
Description: Forewing pattern similar to that in P. m a j o rc u l a, hindwing costal area without a concrete yellow mark. Male genitalian armature is relatively massive, aedeagus has long bundles of spiny cornuti dorsally and the sternite A8, although not strongly chitinized, is bilobed terminally (Figs. 34–36). Quite possibly, this species is pictured by Piñas (2005, Fig. 264, as a female for P. rhanis).
Biology: Confined to rich tropical mountainous forests at about 1400–2300 m above sea level.
Etymology: The specific name is from Estonian family name Kuklase. Gender masculine.
Distribution: Ecuador; Peru.

Pyrochlora majorcula Dyar, 1925: 7. Type locality: French Guiana: Cayenne.
Measurements: Wing span 25.0–28.0 mm in males (n=21), 33.0 mm in females (n=2). Length of antennal pectinations in males 0.51–0.52 mm (n=10) (Form A), or 0.52–0.56 mm (n=5) (Form B), 0.45 mm in female.
Description: The species is characterized by the sack-shaped aedeagus similar to but longer than that of P. rhanis, with a short apical spine; sternite A8 sclerotized and distally straight-edged, not emarginated posteriorly. There are differences between the populations from Kaw Mts. and NE Brazil (male antennae shorter pectinated; the dorsobasal appendix from valve costa pollex-like, straight, and valve ventral margin less angulate at its basal third; Fig. 25), and from Ecuador (antennal pectinations longer; the costobasal appendix of valve rounded and valve ventral margin angulate at sacculus: Fig. 28). The entire male armature is relatively more massive in moths from Ecuador and thinner in the Fr. Guyana population (Figs. 25–30). Moths from SE Brazil differ in wings shape, relatively shorter and broader, sharing genital characters of the Form A (except a slightly more slender saccus).

Diagnosis: The species is characterized by smaller, delicate male genitalic armature and small, simple aedeagus (length 1.20–1.25 mm) lacking cornutus (Figs. 31–33).
Description: Forewing medial and postmedial lines fused X-shaped in anal area, separating the yellow tornal blotch and a yellow line proximal to the medial line (Fig. 6). Hindwing submarginal field greyish brown, ample marked yellow at costa. Hindwing below with two grey blotches in terminal area. Forewing below with two distinct lines at middle of the anal area; the tornal spot 8-shaped. Fresh specimens with wings underneath tinted reddish. Male genitalia of relatively delicate build, aedeagus not sack-shaped but short, flat and lacking apical spine. Sternite A8 not sclerotized distally.
Biology: Confined to primary rain forests on lowlands and low hills.
Etymology. The specific name is from the locality name Motilonia in Costa Rica. Gender feminine.

OCCURRENCE. — Gölbelen section of the Hadim Nappe (BozkIr/ Konya, Central Taurides, Turkey).
DESCRIPTION
Test relatively large in size and inflated short-fusiform in shape with convex lateral sides and narrowly rounded to pointed poles. The test takes its shape with first volutions and preserved throughout its evolution.The initial volutions are coiled tightly, but latters loosely. Proloculus globular and moderately in size, with an outside diameter of 130-190 microns. The number of volutions is up to 4½-5½ in advanced specimens, and length ranges between 2.15 to 2.90 mm, diameters range between 1.35 to 1.85 mm and form ratios of 1.48 to 1.59 (mostly 1.57- 1.59). Four-layered wall is moderately thick (0.035 -0.070 mm in the outer volutions), and composed of a prominent tectum, a very distinct diaphanotheca, thin-dark lower and thick-dark upper tectorium (Fig. 16J). Septa folded across the coiling axis. Chomata are massive, symmetrical and subribbon-like to rounded in shape and their heights reach to half height of chamber or pass it.
REMARKS
Praefusulinella tekini Akbaş, n. gen., n. sp. is similar to Fusulinella bocki bocki and Fusulinella bocki timanica, but it differs from them by smaller test and low L/D (L/D ratio of Fusulinella bocki bocki is 2.00 and L/D ratio of Fusulinella bocki timanica is range between 1.70 to 1.80), ovoid initial volutions and subribbon-like chomata.
