            <p>Type material.</p>
            <p>Holotype. female, Iran, prov. Khorasan-e-Razavi, Binaloud, 2507 m, 36°28'56"N, 59°46'17"E, 10.IX.2012; slide No. 3145 PGY. The holotype is deposited in the collection of P. Gyulai, later to be deposited in the Hungarian Natural History Museum, Budapest, Hungary</p>
            <p>Paratype.</p>
            <p>Male, with the same data as the holotype; slide No. 3144 PGY (coll. P. Gyulai, Miskolc).</p>
            <p>Diagnosis.</p>
            <p> Anagnorisma
chamrani
 is the sister species of  Anagnorisma eucratides (Boursin, 1957), which is only known from eastern Afghanistan at altitudes of 2050 to 2450 m of the Hindu Kush Mountains.The main external differential features, in comparison with  Anagnorisma eucratides (Figs 1, 2), are the following: thoracic pubescence, ground colour of forewing and filling of stigmata more unicolorous, not brownish red as in  Anagnorisma eucratides ; antemedial line oblique, somewhat zigzagged; postmedial line more crenellate, both of them have a finer black-marked definition; subterminal line less wavy; hindwing darker greyish; cilia pale pinkish. The new species is also similar to the Pakistani  Anagnorisma goniophora , but the antemedial line is more zigzagged, the postmedial line is less evenly arched, being terminally oblique and not perpendicular to the inner edge of the forewing, the subterminal line is more wavy in the upper half and more conspicuously ochreous. The two other members of  Anagnorisma are less similar to the new species;  Anagnorisma chamrani differs from  Anagnorisma glareomima by its darker and more elongated wings, larger stigmata and the different configuration of the stigmata and the black intermaculation; finally, it cannot be confused with the conpicuously different, orange-brown coloured  Anagnorisma zakaria . Wingspan 34-35 mm.The configuration of the genitalia of both sexes indicates the close relationship between  Anagnorisma eucratides and  Anagnorisma chamrani . In the male genitalia (Figs 6, 7, 9, 10), the dorsal costa of the valva of  Anagnorisma chamrani is more extended medially, so the costal and dorsal margins are less parallel than in  Anagnorisma eucratides ; the valval apex is evenly rounded, more prominent dorsally than ventrally (it is the opposite in  Anagnorisma eucratides ); the apical lobe and the ventral extension are smaller; the vinculum is somewhat longer; the aedeagus is slightly curved ventrad; the dorsal and ventral carinal plates are narrow, crest-like, long and strongly sclerotised, the ventral plate terminates in an obtuse, small peak (the ventro-lateral carinal plate of  Anagnorisma eucratides is markedly stronger, bearing a conspicuous, strong thorn). </p>
            <p> The male genitalia of  Anagnorisma
chamrani
 are strikingly dissimilar from those of the externally similar  Anagnorisma goniophora , especially the broader valvaof  Anagnorisma chamrani , particularly its distal  part and the assemblage of the valval apex; the much longer, arched harpe and the longer, crest-like carinal plates. The diagnostic features, in comparison with  Anagnorisma zakaria , are the much longer, arched harpe, the considerably shorter (about half as long) ventral valval extension and the longer and not extended, crest-like ventral carinal plate in  Anagnorisma chamrani . </p>
            <p> In the female genitalia,  Anagnorisma chamrani (Fig. 8) differs from  Anagnorisma eucratides by its narrower but higher, more sclerotised, asymmetrically subquadrangular antrum with U-shaped postero-medial incision; longer ductus bursae with less elbow-like lateral projection and the almost twice as long, more prominent, conical appendix bursae. Comparing with  Anagnorisma glareomima and  Anagnorisma zakaria , the most conspicuous difference is the shape of ductus bursae:  Anagnorisma chamrani has an almost evenly-broad ductus bursae with an asymmetrical medial constriction in one side and elbow-like lateral projection on the opposite side, whereas the two other species have a funnel-like ductus bursae. </p>
            <p>Distribution.</p>
            <p> The new species is known only from the type locality, the higher Binaloud Mountains (Fig. 11). The dominant species in the vegetation of the habitat are Mountain Sainfoin, Wild almond (  Amygdalus scoparia ), Downy brome (  Bromus tectorum ); the other mentionable plants are  Bromus ,  Artemisia and  Astragalus spp. The adults were attracted to light early on a cold night in September. The early stages are unknown. </p>
            <p>Etymology.</p>
            <p> The new species is named in honour of the martyr Dr. Mostafa Chamran (1932-1981). In 1982 the Jundi Shapur University was renamed to Shahid Chamran University after the martyrdom of Dr. Chamran, an outstanding Iranian warrior in the 8 years  Iran–Iraq war. The university was closed in those days due to the war conditions in the area. </p>
