Introduction
With twenty years before Josef Razowski Tortrix perpulchranus Kennel, 1901 examined samples which are very similar to a species from Romania, from Bulgaria and from Syria. Established that these adults are not identical T. perpulchranus with a species, but the description of a new species necessary. It turned out that he is T. perpulchranus species does not owe Tortrix Linnaeus, 1758 into genus. Razowski (1978) wrote a new genus down at this time, on Tosirips names. The type-species: Tortrix perpulchranus Kennel, 1901. In Romania, in Bulgaria and found exemplars for a new race in Syria wrote it down Tosirips magyarus Razowski, 1978 he is on a name. The new one came to light about a race, that in Europe only the nominate subspecies edge (ssp. magyarus), in Syria though the ssp. syriacus. In the course of the later researches T. magyarus magyarus collected from Serbia, Slovenia, Italy and Corsica. From Central Europe but his any kind of data was known. I collected the subspecies in the recent past on noon Hungary, in Mecsek Mountains.
