Distribution.
Known only from the
type
locality, Bolkar Dağları (
Fig. 844
).
Remarks.
The word “Kachsebiye” in the original label probably refers to
Kayseri Province
which had larger borders in 1895. The
type
locality of this species must be highlands of Bolkar Mountains between the present
Mersin
,
Karaman
and
Niğde
provinces.
The type specimens of
P. tauricolus
and
P. rigidus
were collected from the same place, Cilician Taurus [Bolkar Dağları] by M. Holtz. There is no doubt that both species belong to the same taxon. Moreover the paratype of
P. rigidus
in the ZIN was identified by Cejchan as “
P. tauricola
”
. All collected specimens are females. The male sex is still unknown.
Ramme (1951)
has priority over Mistshenko (
Bey-Bienko & Mistshenko, 1951
).
The record of
Salman (1978)
from Ağrı province, N.E. Turkey should deserve to be confirmed.
According to the ICZN (Articles 31.2, 34.2) the species name of this taxon is combined.
