Anthidium cribratum Morawitz, 1875: 130–131 View in CoL , ♀ ♂. Type locality: in Latin ‘Hab. in deserto prope Taschkent et in Kuldscha’ [in the desert near Tashkent and in Kuldscha], in Russian ‘Найдень въ степи между Ташкентомъ и Сыръ- Дарьей 19 мая (700‘-1400‘). Полученъ также изъ Кульджи’ [found in the steppe between Tashkent and the Syr-Darya ( Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan) on May 19. Received also from Gulja, probably in China]. Lectotype, ♂, designated byWarncke, 1980: 162:‘Ташкентъ [Tashkent]’, ‘к. Ф Моравица [coll. F. Morawitz]’, ‘ Anthidium cribratum F. Moraw. View in CoL ♂.’, ‘ Lectotypus Anthidium cribratum Mor. (Warncke 1978) View in CoL ’ (ZISP).
? Anthidium petechiale Morawitz, 1875: 130 View in CoL , ♀. Type locality: in Latin ‘Hab. in valle Sarafschan ; semel captum’ [ Captured once in the Zeravshan River Valley , Tajikistan], in Russian ‘Найденъ только разъ въ заравшанской долинѣ между Іори и Дашты- Казы 31 мая (3‘800)’ [ Found only once in the Zarafschan River Valley between Yori and Dasthikazy, Tajikistan, May 31, 3‘ 800 m].
Material examined: Seven females, 29 males (see Supporting Information, Table S1 for specimen data).
Distribution: Iran, Israel and Palestine, Jordan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Syria, Tajikistan, Turkey, Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan ( Fig. 22B View Figure 22 ).

(female and male visits); Tamaricaceae Tajikistan Tamarix sp. (male visits); Verbenaceae Tajikistan Verbena officinalis L. (male and female visits).
Diagnosis female: The female of P. cribratum may be distinguished from other members of this complex by the following combination of characters: punctation on terga comparatively coarse, as large or larger than punctation on mesonotum, with shiny interspaces between punctures; largest punctures on black part of scutellum equal in diameter to largest punctures on T 2 ( Fig. 17B, D, F View Figure 17 ).
The female of P. cribratum is similar to P. tenellum and P. rozeni ; for more information concerning the differentiation of these three species, see the section entitled ‘Diagnosis female’ for P. rozeni . In their zone of overlap (e.g. in Central Asia), differentiating females of P. cribratum from those of P. tenellum may be challenging.
Diagnosis male: The male of P. cribratum may be distinguished from other members of this complex by the following combination of characters: apex of coxa 3 with pronounced, flattened, round-tipped tooth, about as long as third tarsal segment is wide at apex ( Fig. 24A–B View Figure 24 ), which is unique within the species complex; gonostylus over 1.5 times wider at widest point than at base ( Fig. 23B View Figure 23 ); notch at apex of gonostylus wide and deeply U-shaped ( Fig. 23B View Figure 23 ); notch is slightly less deep than width of notch at opening; notch slopes laterally, so that interior tip of the notch is visibly wider than the exterior ( Fig. 23B View Figure 23 ); lateral comb on S5 very small, with longest teeth far shorter than maximum width of hind basitarsus ( Fig. 11F View Figure 11 ); posterior, premarginal brush on S3 with hairs unhooked at tips ( Fig. 12F View Figure 12 ); shiny, hairless zone on S3 between posterior premarginal brush of hairs and anterior zone of dense, velvety pilosity trapezoidal, without medial extension extending anteriorly along the midline of sternum ( Fig. 12F View Figure 12 ); posterior margin of S2 strongly depressed ( Fig. 13F View Figure 13 ); hairs on ventral surface of trochanter 3 dense and of even length but not velvety.
Geographic variation: In Central Asia, individuals have broad punctures that are dense but not contiguous on the vertex, thorax and terga and the integument is shiny. In specimens from the Middle East, including Israel, Jordan, Syria and eastern Turkey, punctures are smaller and mostly contiguous and the integument is less shiny (lightly reticulate), especially on the scutum and scutellum. In addition, males from Central Asia have a more elongate gonostylus with the outer apical projection cylindrical and the lateral comb of S5 nearly truncate and symmetrical apically, while Middle Eastern males have a shorter gonostylus with the outer projection conical and the lateral comb asymmetrical, not truncate. Specimens from Iran are more similar to specimens from the Middle East than to those from Central Asia, although in a single specimen the punctation on the terga is intermediate in size between the forms seen at the extreme ends of this species’ distribution.
