Eupithecia dearmata is a moth in the family Geometridae. It is found in Turkey.[2] Adults have dull grey wings with a large number of scattered dark scales and a wing span of 14–15 mm.[3]

Taxonomy

[edit]

The species was originally described by Karl Dietze in genus Eupithecia, though he mentioned the possibility that it might instead belong to genus Gymnoscelis,[3] to which it was later transferred. In 2013, it was however restored to its original genus by Vladimir Mironov,[4] whose placement has been followed by subsequent authors.[5][6][7]
