Published records. GUIGNOT (1954: 201): ‘Le Bélouchistan’, no additional data provided.
Notes. Two species, H. fabricii and H. ponticus Sharp, 1882 , should occur in the Iranian part of Baluchistan according to GUIGNOT (1954). However, WEWALKA (1979) replaced H. fabricii in Afghanistan and Pakistan by H. ricinus Wewalka, 1979 , and all specimens from Iran, which I have studied belong to H. ponticus . Thus, H. fabricii should not be considered as a member of the dytiscid fauna of Baluchistan, and its occurrence there is improbable.
