L. Koch, 1837) Pterotricha lentiginosa : Roewer 1955 : 772. Comments. This species was recorded in Iran (from two localities in the provinces of East Azarbayjan and Fars) by Roewer (1955) based on two female specimens. Considering Roewer's well-known taxonomic mistakes, and that the Iranian record is considerably far from its known range (Crete is the easternmost known locality), it is probable that this species was misidentified ( Mozaffarian and Marusik 2001 ). Unfortunately, the specimens were not located at SMF and are probably lost (Julia Altmann pers. comm.).
