POECILIMON LUSCHANI LUSCHANI
RAMME, 1933
Poecilimon luschani
Ramme, 1933: 539–540
.
Type information:
Holotype
– male; Kleinasien (
Turkey
), Göllbakti (Naturhistorisches Museum, Vienna; not examined). In the original description, the type locality was given as ‘Göllbakti (Kleinasien)’ by
Ramme (1933)
. Later, Karabag˘ (1958) gave this locality as ‘Gölbas¸ı-Ankara (?)’, with uncertainty. However, members of this species group are present along a line in west
Anatolia
(plus the Balkans) and no record has been mentioned from central
Anatolia
since that date. Heller (2004) and later
Ünal (2005)
(also
V
. Fet, pers. comm.) reported that Luschan collected around Kale (
Antalya
) in south-west
Anatolia
and thus very probably Kale is the type locality.

and
Bei-Bienko (1954)
.
Distribution:
Endemic to south-west
Anatolia
, in the western part of
Antalya Province
and the most eastern end of Mug˘la Province,
Turkey
(

). All populations belonging to this subspecies are recorded from lowlands in a range starting from Demre (
Antalya Province
) and extending to the most eastern end of Mug˘la Province in the Es¸en Valley.
