R e m a r k: The female is not distinguishable from Cryptocheilus semicastaneus MORAWITZ , males can be recognized by a different propodeal structure. Both taxa are separated by distribution pattern: Cryptocheilus discolor occurs in the Mediterranean area and Turkey, Cryptocheilus semicastaneus is restricted to Central Asia east of the Caspian Sea. Until now, we could not examine males of these species from Iran, so the true identity of these findings in Iran is not verified. Iran represents the transition area between Cryptocheilus semicastaneus and Cryptocheilus discolor .
