The annotated list of 585 species of Lepidoptera from the Kola Peninsula is the first comprehensive account from the area. It is based on results of a recent 14-years collecting as well as on the old materials collected by Finnish entomologists and on all the data published earlier. For each species, the localities are listed; position of all localities is indicated on the map; species numbers from localities and UTM squares are summarized. Eight species are new for Russia; six species collected along the White Sea coast were never recorded in Northern Fennoscandia. Eight species erroneously reported from the Kola Peninsula are excluded from the list.
