Remarks.

Castilla et al. (2013) gave a detailed distribution map for H. persicus , covering the Arabian Peninsula and adjacent countries. In Saudi Arabia, its distribution is confined to the Eastern Province ( Haas 1957, 1961; Martens 1996; Aloufi et al. 2023).

In the islands of the Arabian Gulf, this species was reported from Sir Bani Yas, Arzanah, and Jernain islands in the UAE ( Soorae 2004; Bourquin 2011).
