Abstract

The results of analysis of phenotypic variability of Erebia lena Christoph, 1889 (Lepidoptera, Satyridae) in Northeastern European Russia are presented. The landscape-zonal and biotopic distribution of the species in Northeastern Europe is characterized. We conclude that establishment of a distinct subspecies E. lena coccinepetrae Belik, 2019 for the Ural populations is not sufficiently justified.
