(Figs 2, 6, 10, 14)

This species is the earliest described taxon of this group and does not seem to be extremely rare, as shown by the many times it has been collected. It shows no significant systematical problems. Its distribution seems limited to M. Taygetos and M. Parnonas, in southern Peloponnese.
