Zoogeographical analysis of the fauna of Crambid moths of the Jewish Autonomous region (JAO) showed that 134 species of the family Crambidae could be divided into 13 arealogical groups: cosmopolitan, trans-Holarctic multizonal, trans-Holarctic boreal, Eurasian multizonal, Asian multizonal, trans-Palaearctic multizonal, trans-Palaearctic boreal arboreal, Eurosiberian boreal arboreal, Eurosiberian steppe, Siberian-Pacific boreal arboreal, Pacific subboreal nemoral, Oriental arboreal and Oriental multizonal. Two large species complexes are separated in the fauna of JAO. The first one includes multiregional, holarctic and palaearctic species with wide ranges, that in sum make up 37.2 % of the total number of species. Many of them belong to the trans-Palaearctic boreal arboreal group (21.6 %), making the core of the Crambid moths fauna in the taiga subregion of the JAO. Their share decreases noticeably in the mixed conifer/broadleaved deciduous forests, where the species of the Pacific subboreal nemoral and Oriental groups prevail (55.5 % of the total number)
