Conclusion

Jordanita (Roccia) volgensis ( Möschler, 1862) is found in four localities on the territory of the Crimean Peninsula. This species is distributed in the Crimea not only in the western part (Kerch’ Peninsula), but also in the eastern part (Tarkhankut Peninsula), where its larval host-plant is Achillea leptophylla M. Bieb. ( Asteraceae ).
