Remarks. This species was described by H. Loew after the material collected by F. Kowarz from “der Alpe Kernecska-Csoka” (Kowarz 1873), probably from present day Romania. However, the lectotype (housed in ZIN) bears Kowarz’ label “Kasan” (Syrovátka 1991; Pont 2011), that is Kazan of Serbia. Our data confirm the presence of the species in Serbia.
