D i s t r i b u t i o n: eastern and central Turkey (GORBUNOV & ŠPATENKA 2001).

R e m a r k s: A very rare species with until now a very scattered distribution pattern. Female and hostplant are still unknown. Additional research is necessary. The taxonomic position suggested in the original description (GORBUNOV & ŠPATENKA 2001) should be redefined. The species is closely related to Chamaesphecia mirza LE CERF 1938 from Iran.
