Remarks: Fourteen provinces are added here to the distribution records of H. signatus . In general, it was collected in areas with continental climate at altitudes from 1000 m to 2200 m (Van). Accordingly, it was not collected from the Aegean and Mediterranean coastal areas. It is a common species, both in warmer and cooler regions. The available data show that it mainly prefers steppes and open areas. It is active from the end of May to the end of August. The species is often recorded from Turkey (21 provinces).

Distribution: North Africa and almost all of Europe; Asia Minor, Azerbaijan, Central Asia, introduced to Madeira ( DATHE & PROSHCHALYKIN 2018). In Turkey: Afyonkarahisar, Bursa, İstanbul, Kırıkkale, Konya, Mersin ( WARNCKE 1972); Erzurum ( ÖZBEK 1977), Ağrı, Aksaray, Bitlis, Gümüşhane, Hakkâri, Isparta, Kahramanmaraş, Kars, Kayseri, Nevşehir, Niğde, Sakarya, Sivas, Van.
