N o t e s: Populations from Turkey are referred to ssp. P. angustula (REITTER, 1898), which was redefined by ALEXIS & DELPONT, 1996 (as P. orientalis ). This taxon, however, is poorly characterised, as remarked also by TAUZIN & RITTNER (2012), and may be only a synonym of the nominotypical subspecies.
