40. Andrena (Melandrena) morio Brullé, 1832

Literature records.

Khalaf and Al-Omar (1974); Gusenleitner and Schwarz (2002: dot map 310); Scheuchl and Willner (2016); Augul (2018).

Remarks.

We have not examined any specimens of this species, but the presence of this species in Iraq is plausible based on its known global distribution, the map records indicated by Gusenleitner and Schwarz (2002), and the presence of this species in neighbouring Turkey and Iran.

Distribution.

West and Central Palaearctic (Gusenleitner and Schwarz 2002; Osytshnjuk et al. 2008; Wood and Monfared 2022).
