Half of the diversity undescribed: Integrative taxonomy reveals 32 new species and a high cryptic diversity in the Scopariinae and Crambinae of the Philippines (Lepidoptera: Crambidae)

The Crambinae and Scopariinae (Lepidoptera: Crambidae) of the Philippines are revised here using DNA barcoding and morphology. In the Scopariinae, 20 species are reported from the Philippines, of which 14 are described as new: Scoparia abo sp. n., S. aenea sp. n. , S. bicornuta sp. n., S. fulvida sp. n., S. ifugaoensis sp. n., S. luzonensis sp. n., S. negrosensis sp. n., S. masiita sp. n., S. tenuispina sp. n., Eudonia penicula sp. n., Micraglossa kianganensis sp. n., Micraglossa polisensis sp. n. In the Crambinae, 42 species are found in the Philippines, with half of them described here as new: Calamotropha anacantha sp. n., Calamotropha philippinensis sp. n., Catoptria philippinensis sp. n., Culladia pseudoscoparia sp. n., Gargela aculea sp. n., Gargela acutibrachium sp. n., Gargela bidentella sp. n., Glaucocharis altissima sp. n., Glaucocharis hamulus sp. n., Glaucocharis kayumanggi sp. n., Glaucocharis kabundukanis sp. n., Glaucocharis negrosensis sp. n., Glaucocharis uncusellus sp...., This dataset contains a list of the specimens of Crambinae and Scopariinae (Lepidoptera: Crambidae) of the Philippine islands investigated in Léger et al. (2024). Label information was hand-typed, and GPS coordinates were inferred using gazetteers. Additionnal notes on the habitat were provided by the main collector of the material., , # Data from: Half of the diversity undescribed: Integrative taxonomy reveals 32 new species and a high cryptic diversity in the Scopariinae and Crambinae of the Philippines (Lepidoptera: Crambidae)

## Description of the data and file structure

**TableS1-Crambinae_Scopariinae_specimen.csv:** file listing the specimens of Crambinae and Scopariinae investigated in Léger, 2024, and stored in the following collections: the Museum für Naturkunde, Berlin, Germany (MfN); the Senckenberg Museum für Tierkunde, Dresden, Germany (MTD); the National History Museum, London (NHMUK); Philippines National Museum (PNM); the State Museum of Natural History Stuttgart (SMNS). Specimen metadata was directly inferred from he label information or the associated notebooks. Locality coordinates were inferred from gazetteers. DNA samples are stored at the Museum für Naturkunde, Berlin.
