[ Tmethis cisti algericus Saussure, 1888 ]
Material examined. Algeria: Tagremaret V.49, 3 ♂, 1♀; Sebdou, 2♀♀; Oran, 5♂, 5♀ (MNCN).
Saussure (1888) described it as variety of T. pulchripennis . Chopard (1943) agreed with him, while Uvarov (1943) listed it as synonym of T. cisti clavelii . It is a long-winged Tmethis , but its characteristics do not differ from those of T. cisti . In addition, the epiphallus of specimens identified as " algerica " by Bolivar and Escalera and collected in the inner Algeria actually matches with the cisti - type. Altogether, characters of this taxon lie within the variability of T. cisti , of which it has to be considered a junior synonym.
