8 species of owlet moths: Gonepatica opalina (Butler, 1879), Sinarella punctalis (Herz, 1904), Xanthomantis cornelia (Staudinger, 1888), Cymatophoropsis trimaculata (Bremer, 1861), Chorsiacostimacula (Oberthür, 1880), Ch. noloides (Butler, 1879), Phlogophora beatrixButler, 1878 andConistra grisescens Draudt, 1950, were recorded from the territory of Amurskaya Oblast(the Russian Far East) for the first time. These species have been reported earlier from Primorsky Krai, southern Khabarovsky Krai, and from Jewish Autonomous Region. The new records significantly expanded the known ranges of these species to the west. Most of them belong to the Manchurian nemoral arealogical group; larvae of 4 species feed on Quercus mongolica, which is the principal species in broad-leaved forest of the Russian Far East. The up-to-date list of owlet moths of Amurskaya Oblast includes 546 species.
