Abstract:

Based on an examination of the genital armatures of both sexes and the hindwing underside pattern of ♀♀, Lorković
(1976) demonstrated that Hipparchia syriaca should be considered as a distinct species separate from H. fagi, alcyone and genava.
This has been confirmed by the present study based on the rearing of H. syriaca from Dalmatia. Lorković (1976) demonstrated that,
in Dalmatia, this species occupied a coastal strip extending up to 700m, from where H. fagi was absent. However, from a study of
the two species in Greece by T.L., the exclusion of the two species was not evident.
