DISTRIBUTION. The species is distributed from Elburs and Luristan on the West through arid and mountain regions of Middle Asia: the Karakum and Kyzylkum deserts, GissaroDarvaz, Pamiro-Alai, ex-Soviet part of the Tien Shan (except for Central one) to Kashmir in the East (Kryzhanovskij et al., 1995; Kirschenhofer, 2017). In Sout-Eastern Kazakhstan, Ch.

tenuilimbatus is common in the Ili valley and adjacent mountains. In Xinjiang, this taxon was recently found in the Kunges and Tekes valleys (the upper Ili basin) and in the Akyaylak valley on the southern slopes of the Khalyktau Mt. Range. The present record of Ch. tenuilimbatus from Xinjiang is the first exact one from the territory of China .

HABITAT. In different regions of Middle Asia, this species inhabits banks of the rivers in plains, foothills and mountains at elevations between 300 and 1810 m.
