Hylaeus (Dentigera) glacialis MORAWITZ, 1872 – DATHE et al.

2016: 15, 45.

Material examined: Erzurum: Oltu, Başaklı, Karadağ Mt , 2100 m, 24.07.2005, , leg. H. Özbek (on Eryngium billardieri ) ; Çamlıbel Karakolu , 1900 m, 01.07.2000, , leg. H. Özbek ; Tortum / Narman Kireçli Dağı Geçidi W, 2100 m, 14.07.1984 , , A.W. Ebmer. Hakkâri: Varagöz , 37°25N 44°13E, 1650 m, 02.08.1986, , leg. S. M. Blank ; Oramar , 10 km NE, 1700 m, 29.06.1985, , leg. M. Schwarz.

Remarks: It is remarkable that both taxa H. giresunus and H. glacialis are said to occur side by side in two provinces (Erzurum, Hakkâri). Errors in older determinations cannot be completely ruled out here. To answer this question, females will have to be compared.

Distribution: Has a disjunctive range in high mountain locations (1500–2100 m) of the Pyrenees, Alps, the Balkans and Asia Minor. Turkey: Erzurum, Hakkâri ( Fig. 17 .II).
