Remarks. Comba (2019) listed this species for Italy [species 154], but the precise specimens underpinning this listing are unclear, as the only supporting citations are Kuhlmann et al. (2015) and Oertli et al. (2005), a paper which only reports species from the Swiss canton of Valais. Kuhlmann et al. (2015) do indeed list A. probata for Italy. Examination of material in the Pagliano collection located a specimen of A. probata that was identified by F. Gusenleitner in 1993. We confirm this identification, and suggest that it is possi- bly the source of the listing by Kuhlmann et al. (2015). The species has also been mentioned from Valle d’Aosta by E. Scheuchl as a personal communication citation during the 2014 European Red List assessment (visible on the IUCN assessment for A. probata ). In any case, the presence of A. probata in Italy can be positively confirmed based on the specimen from Abruzzo, which was further supported by an additional specimen in a private Belgian collection.
