Remarks. Lathrimaeum ganglbaueri was originally described from “Südungarn (Herkulesbad)”. Lathrimaeum knappei was originally described from “…dem Nordwestfuss des Berguges Galičica gelegenen Dorfe Ramne südöstlich von Ochrid in Mazedonien in etwa 1000 bis 1200 m ..”. Zerche (2001) designated the lectotype of L. knappei and synonymized it with A. ganglbaueri . Lathrimaeum anatolicum was originally described from “Anatolie occidentale:Abant Dagh…”. Assing (2015) synonymized this species with A. ganglbaueri . The habitus as in Fig. 23; the aedeagus as in Figs 29–30. Anthobium ganglbaueri is known from south Europe (Bulgaria, Greece, Macedonia, Serbia, Romania) and Turkey. The map of distribution of the species in Turkey see in Assing (2009). It is here recorded from the Caucasian region and Georgia for the first time.
