Remarks.
The species demonstrates quite peculiar distribution. It was described from a good series of males and females collected in the Crimea with several specimens being caught much further north (
Mostovski & Mikhailovskaya, 2003
). It is also known from
Greece
(pers. observ.) and
Hungary
(Lengyel pers. comm.). Now the species is recorded in
Israel
.
