03FA4A08FFBCFF9F6EEE472FFD15FDD9.taxon	diagnosis	Comparison. The only other Urophora species known to attack the genus Psephellus is U. trinervii Korneyev et White, 1996, which has an entirely different wing pattern characterised by reduced, faint crossbands, with the subbasal crossband absent or rarely represented by only a grey spot located between veins R 1 and A 1, the discal crossband obscure, represented in females by a weak, diffuse spot bordering r-m (= ta), and usually more or less expressed between R 1 and r-m in males, and the preapical and apical crossbands separated in females, and joined in 65 % males. The basal scutellar seta in U. trinervii is on the margin of the yellow and black areas (Korneyev & White, 1996) versus within the black area in U. sevanensis sp. nov. Korneyev & White (1996) reared U. trinervii from capitulum galls on Psephellus trinervius (Willd.) Wagenitz [as Odontolophus trinervius in Korneyev & White (1996) and as Centaurea (Odontolophus) trinervius in Korneyev & White (1999)]. Urophora sevanensis sp. nov. resembles U. aprica (Fallén, 1820), which is associated with Centaurea cyanus L. A latter fly species located in couplet 54 in a key for the identification of the eastern Palaearctic Urophora species provided by Korneyev & White (1999). Here, the morphological details U. aprica are illustrated based on the original material from the Ulyanovsk Province of Russia (Figs 10 – 18).	en	Evstigneev, D. A.

03FA4A08FFBCFF9F6EEE472FFD15FDD9.taxon	biology_ecology	Host plant. Larvae of the new species develop in the capitula of Psephellus sp. (Fig. 27, see Addenda). Terellia ermolenkoi Korneyev, 1985 was reared from the capitula of the same species of Psephellus. Information about this fly species is presented below.	en	Evstigneev, D. A.

03FA4A08FFBCFF9F6EEE472FFD15FDD9.taxon	etymology	Etymology. The species name is an adjective derived from Lake Sevan (Սևան in Armenian), on the coast of which the type locality is situated.	en	Evstigneev, D. A.

03FA4A08FFB8FF9F6EEE4010FDAEF936.taxon	description	(Figs 19 – 26) Material examined. Armenia, Gegharkunik Prov., western coast of Sevan Lake, between Noratus Vill. and Eranos Vill., among rocks, 4 females and 4 males reared on 10. IV. 2022 from capitula of Psephellus sp. collected on 25. VII. 2021, D. Evstigneev leg. Comments. Larvae of this species develop on the same Psephellus sp. as larvae of Urophora sevanensis sp. nov. Terellia ermolenkoi was originally described by V. Korneyev (1985) from Azerbaijan, based on one male collected by Ermolenko. This species was reported from Armenia (Zarghani et al., 2016) and from the Caucasus in Russia: the Beshtau Mountain in the Stavropol’ Territory, the Jamagat Valley near Teberda in the Republic of Karachay-Cherkessia (Zarghani et al., 2016), and the Lagonaki Plateau in the Republic of Adygea (Shcherbakov, 2017). A description of females and redescription of males of this species was provided in the paper cited above (Zarghani et al., 2016). These authors found that larvae of T. ermolenkoi develop in the capitula of various species of the genus Psephellus. The morphological details of T. ermolenkoi are illustrated in Figs 19 – 26. The shape, position and colour elements of the scutal pattern (= scutal marks) are illustrated for the first time (Figs 23, 24). Distribution. Armenia (Zarghani et al., 2016), Azerbaijan (Korneyev, 1985), Iran (Zarghani et al., 2016), and the Caucasus in Russia (Zarghani et al., 2016; Shcherbakov, 2017).	en	Evstigneev, D. A.
