Genus Glyphipterix Hübner

Type species. Tinea bergstraesserella Fabricius, 1781 , by subsequent designation by ICZN (1986).

Distribution. Subcosmopolitan, except for the Arctic and Antarctica ( Heppner 1982, 1985; Arita 1983, 1985, 1987, 1995; Diakonoff 1986; Dugdale 1988; Mey 1991; Arita & Heppner 1992; Edwards 1996; Dugdale et al. 1999; Arita & Owada 2006; Liu & Li 2014; Sohn & Heppner 2015; Pohl & Nanz 2023).

Remarks. The world fauna includes more than 310 species belonging to the genus Glyphipterix Hübner ( Heppner 1982, 1985; Arita 1979, 1983, 1985, 1995; Arita & Owada 2006; Liu & Li 2014; Sohn & Heppner 2015; Pohl & Nanz 2023) and only 21 species are recorded in Russia. Of these, 13 species inhabit the Far East ( Ponomarenko 2016; Ponomarenko & Sinev 2024a). Processing of the dry specimens collected in the south of the Far East made it possible to identify the female of species Glyphipterix maritima Diakonoff, 1979 , for which only the male was known until now ( Diakonoff 1986), the female morphology is described below.
