Remarks.
Within the Middle East, the taxonomy of this species is problematic. Metallinou et al. (2015) referred to the Arabian populations as the P. hasselquistii species complex within two clades, the first referring to populations of western and central Saudi Arabia and Oman, while the second clade includes populations associated with the southwestern mountains of Aseer. It was previously recorded from Al Dharan ( Haas 1957), Al Hassa ( Al-Sadoon 2010), and several localities in the Eastern Province ( Aloufi et al. 2023).
