Material. We examined 4♂♂ and 7♀♀ from Kaliningrad Region of Russia, listed by V. Alekseev et al. (2015) and Alekseev (2022).

1♀ ( PCVA), Russia, Kaliningrad Region, Mechnikovo ( Baltiysk ), 31.05.2025, dried oak ( V.I. Alekseev) ; 1♀ ( ZMMU), Ukraine, “Lesienice” (now, Lvov Region, Lisinichi) ; 1♂ ( ZMMU), Germany, Berlin (ex coll. of Muche) .
