COMMENTS: In the original description, Hartert gave Tancré’s number for the holotype and noted that he studied 14 specimens. The 13 paratypes, all collected in Turkestan in 1901 by or for Tancre´, are: Bed of Karakol, AMNH 675568 View Materials , 675569 View Materials , male, female, September ; South of Lake Issik-kul , AMNH 675570 View Materials , 675572 View Materials , 675573 View Materials , two males, one female, November and February ; Bed of Ak-su , AMNH 675574 View Materials , 675575 View Materials , male, female, September ; Ak-su , AMNH 675576 View Materials , 675577 View Materials , male, female, September ; Barskoun , AMNH 675578 View Materials , 675579 View Materials , male, female, September and month ?; Bed of Djargess , AMNH 675580 View Materials , 675581 View Materials , male, female, September .

Rothschild (1902) had reported earlier on Tancré’s collection; on page 166 he listed only the three February specimens but noted their darker color. The September and November specimens apparently arrived later.
