Asian Turkey. Hoberlandt (1952: M. w. alkani, types (partim); M. w. kosswigi, types;? M. perplexa (partim )), Wróblewski (1962a), Jansson (1995), Önder et al. (2006); this paper.

Turkey (not distinguished). Kıyak & Özsaraç (2001).

General distribution. Anatolia, Israel ( Jansson 1995).

Comment. Micronecta wui kosswigi was synonymized with M. wui alkani by Wróblewski (1962b). The series of paratypes of M. wui alkani from the locality ‘Suluhan’ ( Hoberlandt 1952a) belongs to M. anatolica ( Wróblewski 1962b, Jansson 1986a). One macropterous female from locality ‘Afrin by Musabeyli’ published by Hoberlandt (1952a) as M. perplexa , probably belongs to M. wui alkani as well (P. Kment revid.).

Identification. Hoberlandt (1952a), Wróblewski (1962a).
