Genus Saldula View in CoL Van Duzee, 1914
Saldula sp. n. near setulosa (Puton, 1880)
Distribution in Iran. Khorasan (Linnavuori & Modarres Awal 1998).
General distribution. The distribution of Saldula setulosa is restricted to the Atlantic Ocean ( Great Britain, France, Morocco, Portugal, Spain) (Péricart 1990).
Comments. Probably this record is a misidentification because setulosa is found only on shores of the Atlantic Ocean and on the French Mediterranean Sea shores (Camargue) (Péricart 1990). Lindskog (1995) says that records from " AS ” (probably a graphic error, more likely it concerns AK, i.e., Asian part of Kazakhstan) Kazakhstan, Turkestan, Tadjiklistan etc." refer to another (and undescribed) species; therefore the record by Linnavuori & Modarres Awal (1998) also probably refers to this unknown species. Therefore we did not consider this unknown species as being a part of the fauna of Iran, because Saldula sp. n. near setulosa has not been described so far.
