Covers European Russia (including Urals), Ukraine (including Crimea), Moldova, Belarus, Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia. A key to 637 species is given together with distributional and host plant information. Several species are recorded from this territory for the first time. Some invalid names frequently occuring in recent literature are put in wrackets after the valid names. As a rule, illustrations are paired for the two alternatives of each couplet to facilitate determination. The book is provided with a taxonomic index and a list of literature is cited.
