Résumé :
A new species of Psychidae Hübner, 1825 discovered in Tuscan Emilian Apennines (northern-central Italy): Epichnopterix focegiovensis n. sp. (Insecta: Lepidoptera: Psychidae)]. Repeatedly, interesting and surprising Lepidoptera are discovered in the Tuscan-Emilian Apennines (northern-central Italy), in fact, at short distance after the discovery of Ptilocephala pyrenaella ducalis Bertaccini, 2017 and Phalacropterix valentinae Bertaccini, 2018 a new Psychidae species has been identified: Epichnopterix focegiovensis n. sp. A differential diagnosis is given allowing discrimination of the new species from the most similar congeners, based on morphology and DNA barcodes.
