Abstract Description of a new subspecies of Poecilimon mytilenensis Werner 1932. Both the new and the nominate subspecies occur on the island of Lesbos, Greece. Both subspecies differ mainly in the length of the tip of male subgenital plate. In addition to morphological data and a detailed distribution map, descriptions and oscillograms of male song of both subspecies, female song of the nominate subspecies and some data on the unusual mating behavior (ampulla mass 15 % of male body mass) are provided.
