Remarks.
As mentioned above, this widespread species was the first to be published from
Azerbaijan
(
Klapálek 1923
). Though the latest review of the genus suggests that species identification can be possible only on the basis of eggs (
Sivec & Stark 2002
), our larvae agrees well with its recent description from the Greater Caucasus (
Zhiltzova & Cherchesova 2003
), and compared with our Georgian specimens that are containing matured eggs. Our
Azerbaijan
specimens were caught in both large and small forest streams of different elevations.
