Remarks. The species was recorded from Northern Africa, Europe, Turkey and Central Asia ( Nast, 1972, Önder et al., 2011). It was recorded from Iran ( Dlabola, 1985) just once from west of the country in Lorestan province ( Fig. 6H). The specimen was deposited in National Museum of Prague and not available for study so illustrations ( Figs 3D, 4M–P) were prepared from a specimen deposited in ZIN.
