Assing (cAss); Konya: 1 ex., Akşehir env., "Sultan Dagh", 8.V.1960, leg. Petrowitz & Ressl (NHMW); 1 ex., Akşehir env., "Sultan Dagh", 6.V.1960, leg. Petrowitz & Ressl (cAss).

Comment. This very recently described species was previously known only from two localities in southwestern and central southern Anatolia (Muġla, Mersin) (Assing 2006a). The record from northeastern Anatolia suggests that it is probably widespread in Turkey (Fig. 1).
