Campania ( Luigioni 1929 ), Apulia ( Panganetti-Hummler 1918 , Luigioni 1929 , Angelini 1987 ), Basilicata ( Angelini 1986 , Angelini and Montemurro 1986 ), Calabria ( Bertolini 1904 , Luigioni 1929 , Porta 1929 , Schatzmayr 1941 , Angelini 1991 ) and Sicily ( Ragusa 1892 , Bertolini 1904 , Winkler 1926 , Luigioni 1929 , Porta 1929 , Liebmann 1962 , Mroczkowski 1968 , Audisio et al. 1995 , Sparacio 1997 , Hava 2003 , 2007 , Zhantiev 2011a ). The generic records for Italy ( Reitter 1883 , 1891 , 1906 , Dalla Torre 1911 , Winkler 1926 , Mroczkowski 1968 , Hava 2003 , 2007 ), peninsular Italy ( Audisio et al. 1995 ), southern Italy ( Sparacio 1997 ) and mainland Italy ( Zhantiev 2011a ) refer to the above listed regions. Remarks. First record from the Abruzzi region; this new site (cf. Osella 1988 ) is at the northernmost limit of the species distribution, while the above record from the Brindisi province is at the easternmost limit. The southernmost site is the Pantelleria Island in the Sicilian Channel ( Liebmann 1962 ). Reitter (1881) described this species without giving any locality of collecting (see also Reitter 1887 ), but based on the specific name, the type locality is apparently in the Calabria region (southern peninsular Italy). The species was described based on an unspecified number of specimens without any type designation ( Reitter 1881 ). The two type specimens above are thus syntypes and are designated here as lectotype and paralectotype, respectively; in this way "Calabria" becomes the type locality of the species ( ICZN 1999 , art. 76.2).
