To the staff at the SIDI of the Universidad Autónoma de Madrid without whose help throughout the summer of 2011 it would have been impossible to have obtained the larval images with the Scanning Electron Microscope. Most grateful thanks to the Research Section of the Universidad Autónoma de Madrid for the concession of two grants to enable the author to work under the auspices of Luis Parra at the Universidad de Concepción (Chile) (November 2010-January 2011) and then with David Wagner at the University of Connecticut (USA) (November 2011-January 2012). These two specialists taught the essentials related to Chaetotaxy. We are also indebted to Mark R. Shaw (now retired) at the National Museum of Scotland who determined all parasitic Hymenoptera species reared out and for his more than helpful comments over the years. A big thank you to José Martín Cano, “Pepe” (now retired) at the Universidad Autónoma de Madrid for the images taken of a larva for this paperEditor's Version

Descriptions of the larval morphology of two Iberian Sterrhinae taxa in the genus Scopula Schrank, 1802 subgenus Glossotrophia Prout, 1913 are provided: Scopula (Glossotrophia) rufomixtaria (Graslin, 1863): larval chaetotaxy: L4 and Scopula (Glossotrophia) asellaria dentatolineata Wehrli, 1926: larval chaetotaxy: L5. Original data is also provided on their biology which includes phenology, food-plants and parasitoids. KEY WORDS: Lepidoptera, Geometridae, Sterrhinae, Scopula, larval morphology, phenology, food plants, chaetotaxy, Spain Se describe la morfología larvaria de dos taxones ibéricos de Sterrhinae pertenecientes al género Scopula Schrank, 1802, subgénero Glossotrophia Prout, 1913: Scopula (Glossotrophia) rufomixtaria (Graslin, 1863): quetotaxia larvaria de L4 y Scopula (Glossotrophia) asellaria dentatolineata Wehrli, 1926: quetotaxia larvaria de L5.
