Popis: Two new species of the genus Agapanthia Audinet-Serville, 1835, A.(Epoptes)papaverinasp.n. (Turkey, Tunceli Province) and A.(Epoptes) griseocaudata sp. n. (Azerbaijan, Baku environs and Mugan steppe), are described. These new species are similar to A.villosoviridescens (DeGeer, 1775), A.lederi Ganglbauer, 1884 and A.simplicicornis Reitter, 1898. Their diagnostic characters of the external morphology and endophallus structure, and host plants are given. The new monotypic subgenus Mirabilinia subgen.n. is described (type species: Agapanthia hirsuticornis Holzschuh, 1975). It differs from all other subgenera in the puncturation and pubescence of body, the shape of pronotum and the structure of aedeagus. Some taxonomic comments on the lederi species-group and A.villosoviridescens are given.
