Remarks: Outside of Iran, C. cinnamomeus was recorded from Central Asia, southern Kazakhstan (Karavaiev 1910) and Afghanistan (Pisarski 1967; Radchenko 1997a). This species is the most thermophilous among Central Asian Cataglyphis , inhabiting mainly stony and clayey deserts. In mountain areas, it lives in dry parts of river valleys.
