Byrsinus discus Jakovlev, 1906
Byrsinus discus Jakovlev, 1906: 52 (as new species).
Iran records: Putshkov 1965: 41 [under the combination Peribyssus discus (Jak., 1906) ]; Hoberlandt 1995: 185 [under the combination Peribyssus discus ( Jakovlev, 1906) ].
Distribution in Iran: Th e mention of Byrsinus discus Jakovlev, 1906 from North Iran, without exact locality information, by Putshskov (1965: 41) was hypothetical. Putshskov wrote “Described from Repetek ( Turkmenistan), mostly it occurs in the upper layer of sandy soil near tufts of grasses. Recorded also from Uzbekistan and certainly will be recorded from grasslands in other Central Asian countries, including (…) northern Iran …” (Translated by D. Redei, our italicization). Hoberlandt (1995: 191) recorded the species from Iran referring only to Putshskov’s work but as a “published records”. Because Lis (2006: 128) did not list B. discus from Iran, its presence in Iran needs confirmation.
Distribution outside Iran: Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan.
