Range , between Khumdon and Sambuli Villages , 37°50.210’N , 68°35.872’E , stony steppe, 420 m , 05.04.2019 ( A.A. Fomichev ) . Etymology. The specific epithet is dedicated to Anatoly A. Fomichev ( Novosibirsk , Russia ), the father of the first author. Diagnosis. The new species belongs to puritanus species group.

From Z. gussakovskyi it can be distinguished by ovate terminal apophysis ( Ta ) ( vs . triangular) (cf. Figs 37 , 43 and 54, 57, 60, 63 ). FIGURES 54–64.
