Palarus laetus is known from the Afrotropical ( Benin , Burkina Faso , Djibouti , Eritrea , Ethiopia , Mali , Mauritania , Niger , Senegal , Sudan , Togo ), Oriental and Palaearctic (e.g. Oman , Saudi Arabia , United Arab Emirates ) regions. The record from Djibouti is not mentioned in ARNOLD (1923 b) and BOHART & MENKE (1976: 291), although Larra annulata and Stizus walkeri are listed in the latter. Larra annulata WALKER, 1871 is a junior homonym of Larra annulata KLUG, 1845.
