description The taxonomic composition of the group Polyommatus dagmara (Grum-Grshimailo, 1888) in Palaearctic is figured. This group is an Iranian-Central Asiatic endemismus and consists of 4 species, two of them are monotypic, two have two subspecies each. It is shown that including this group into genus-group taxon Paragrodiaetus Rose et Schurian, 1977 is erroneous, and the lectotype of the type species of this genus-group taxon (Lycaena glaucias Lederer, [1870]) is designated. Also lectotypes of Lycaena erschoffi Lederer, 1869 and Lycaena superba Staudinger, 1887 are designated, the new synonymy is established: Polyommatus erschoffi erschoffi (Lederer, 1869) = P. erschoffi taherides Eckweiler, 1998, syn. n. The determination key of species for this group is compiled.
