Remarks: Although H. difformis has a large distribution area outside Turkey, it was previously only known from the province Mersin. In the present study it is newly recorded from four provinces, which also represent new records for the Black Sea and Eastern Anatolia regions. The species has a sporadic distribution and occurs from 1000 m to 2500 m. In Turkey it is collected only sparsely (5 provinces).

Distribution: Transpalaearctic, from the Iberian Peninsula to the Russian Far East. Turkey: Mersin ( WARNCKE 1972); Antalya, Artvin, Erzurum, Hakkâri.
