Data confidence 70 medium

How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

New data on the distribution of the poorly known Noctuidae species, Cteipolia murina (Ménétriés, 1848) is provided, the species is reported from West, Central, Northeast, and the northern Southeast Kazakhstan, and its female genitalia are illustrated and diagnosed for the first time. The authorship of the species is discussed. The similar species, Cteipolia isotima Püngeler, 1914 is reported from East Kazakhstan (Saur-Tarbagatai massif) for the first time. Adults, male and female genitalia and habitats of both species are illustrated.
