Remarks

This species was described from Tajikistan and was subsequently recorded from Kyrgyzstan in the subalpine (2555 m) and alpine (3207 m) zones ( Sychevskaya & Vtorov 1969: 821; Sychevskaya 1970: 827; Pont 1986: 71). These identifications, made by ACP over fifty years ago and before the radiation of this genus in Asia was even suspected, and almost certainly based only on females, are very probably incorrect. Males of this group of species from Kyrgyzstan are needed before a definitive name can be provided for these females.
