Remarks: Due to the similar the integument sculpture (formed exclusively by fine denticles) and P-3 bearing one ventral seta ( Fig. 6C –D), Sperchon tarnogradskii closely resembles S. insignis Walter, 1906, from which it differs exclusively in P-3 being larger in size. The variability of further populations needs to be examined to clarify the taxonomy. Figures 4A–E show some morphological details of the specimens from Bingöl Province. New for Turkey .
