Hypogastrura purpurescens ( Lubbock, 1867)

Material examined. 1 female, 1 male, soil and litter, Zagros Mountains, walnut orchard in Shahu city (N34°56’ E46°27’ / 1663 m a.s.l.), Paveh County, Kermanshah Province, Iran, 13. xii. 2012, leg. M. Kahrarian; 1 female, 1 male, soil, pasture on southern slope of the hill near Sia khor village (N 34°06′ E46°31′), Zagros Mountains, Islamabad-e Gharb County, Kermanshah Province, Iran, 15. ii. 2013, leg. M. Kahrarian; 1 female, 1 male, litter and soil, oak forest, Zagros Mountains, southern slope of the Koor Koor mountain, near Chahar zebar-e-oliya village (N34°13’ E46°40’ /1600 a.s.l.), Kermanshah County, Kermanshah Province, Iran, 0 4. xii. 2012, leg. M. Kahrarian; 2 males, the same data as above, but 0 9. iii. 2013.

Note. Though this species is common and widely distributed ( Babenko et al. 1994, Thibaud et al. 2004) it is now recorded from Iran for the first time. Studied populations generally fits the description of H. purpurescens , but it exhibits ecomorphic characters described by Cassagnau (1955) ( Figs 8-10 View FIGURES 7 – 10 ) and this makes exact identification difficult.
