Distribution.
Iran
(Demavend Mt. from ~
2800 to 3500 m
). I didn’t include
Razavi Khorasan Province
in the distribution based on the strange locality “Quchan, Kopet Dag,
3000 m
”, because the Iranian part of Kopet Dag mountains does not exceed
2000 m
, and only one mount Kuh-e Patu (not Kopet Dag ridge) with the elevation near
3000 m
is located
50 km
west of Quchan. This mountain belongs to another mountain system (Turkmen-Khorasan mountains) than Demavend and and labelling raises doubts.
