Comments:

The original description is based on two syntypes, a male and a female, from the environs of Adana, central southern Anatolia ( LOKAY, 1907). The types were looked for, but not found in the collections of the natural history museum in Prague, where Lokay´s material is deposited (FIKÁČFIKÁFIK EK, pers. comm.). According to the original description, the species is characterised especially by the modifications on the male abdominal tergites III-V and VII-VIII, which are illustrated by LOKAY (1907).
