Distribution.

Rare Caucasian species known only from a few localities ( Wagner 1981; Oboňa et al. 2019).

Note.

Described from Georgia by Wagner (1981) on the basis of the only holotype from a right tributary above the village Kwarchi. After the second record from Georgia ( Oboňa et al. 2019), the species was recorded from another six sites in this study. Species found in low numbers in a range of elevations from 295 m ( Oboňa et al. 2019) to 1520 m a.s.l. (see above). First records for Azerbaijan.

Figure 2. Occurrence of individual species on a map of the area of interest. Different colours (altitude) indicate the elevation in m a. s. l. and different symbols mark the sampling sites with occurrence of the species. When species co-occurred at the locality, an offset is shown in the legend and described in the Materials and methods. The number of sites where the species is present is given in brackets.
