title: First records of Chamaesphecia efetovi O. Gorbunov, 2019, in Krasnodar Territory (Northern Caucasus, Russia) (Lepidoptera: Sesiidae)
abstract: Chamaesphecia efetovi O. Gorbunov, 2019, is recorded from Krasnodar Territory (Russia) for the first time. The larvae of this species are oligophagous on Marrubium spp. (Lamiaceae), from which M. peregrinum L. is widely distributed in the studying area. We investigated 14 biotopes during 2021-2023 with the help of sex attractants and found populations of Ch. efetovi in four of them. We have clarified the periods of seasonal and daily activity of this species in the region.
