Microhoria caliginosa caliginosa (LaFerté­Sénectère, 1849) ( Fig. 9 View Fig )

= Anthicus caliginosus LaFerté­Sénectère, 1849 (repeated description)

Anthicus caliginosus LaFerté­Sénectère, 1849a: 163 (description); LaFerté­Sénectère, 1849b: 262 (repeated description).

Type material not studied.

Additional material. 1 male ADC: Iugoslavia Iyan, 1900 Apfelbeck // MICROHORIA caliginosa LaFerté­Sénectère, 1849 A. Degiovanni, 2020 Det .; 1 male MNHN: Sinh D. Novak 29.6­ 36 // Microhoria caliginosa Laf. P. BONADONA dét .; 8 males & females, DTC: BULGARIA – SW, 10 km N Sandanski , 23°14’53’’E, 41°39’08’’N, h= 500m, 6.VI.2016, Lg.A. Napolov & I. Roma GoogleMaps .

Distribution. Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, Greece, Italy, Slovenia, former Yugoslavia (without data on collecting locality) (Chandler et al. 2008; Telnov 2020a). The record for Turkey by Chandler et al. (2008) possibly based on unpublished specimen(s) in the collection of G. Uhmann. This was followed by Telnov (2020a). However, no published or unpublished Turkish locality records of this taxon were allocated during this study. Its presence in western part of Turkey is not impossible but requires further confirmation. This species is therefore not redescribed here.

Subspecies epidaurosa (Pic, 1936) in Greece, subspecies pannonica (Kaszab, 1956) in Hungary, and subspecies sexualis (C. Koch, 1933) in Croatia (Chandler et al. 2008; Telnov 2020a).

Chorotype. E­Mediterranean (3.03 EME), here considered restricted to the European part of the area.
