Demyanenko leg.; gen. prep. 626.22s V. Yepishin (all VYe). Distribution in Ukraine: Kyiv reg.: iNaturalist 2025 (122913615). First record from Zhytomyr region and first confirmed record from Luhansk region (see Remarks section of Apomyelois cognata). Remarks. The adults of A. bistriatella (Figs 11–12) are quite similar to A. cognata (Figs 13–15), but differ by darker wing colouration and often smaller sizes. In female genitalia, the corpus bursae is elongated, spindle-shaped, the apex is more pointed (Figs 16–17), in A. cognata, the shape of corpus bursae is pyriform, and the apex is more rounded (Figs 18–19). The male genitalia of A. bistriatella are almost indistinguishable from those of A. cognata, the most important feature is the almost flat, with a slight depression, top of the transtilla, which in A. cognata is noticeably bifurcated (Fig. 20a).
