Comments.
Density of this species seems relatively low in this oblast (
Dotsenko and Radchenko 2005
). In Ukraine the northern border of the range of this species is south of the city of Mykolaiv (
Boehme
et al. 2009
). The species was reported from near Ochakov, on the Kinburn Spit and within Mykolaiv (
Dotsenko and Radchenko 2005
;
Dovzhenko 2013
). Our observations were made 60-80 km north of the previous reports. Two records were from the left bank of the South Bug River, versus 16 from the right (Fig.
10C
).
