Despite the vast distribution area of E . retusidens , it is restricted in Siberia by Altaiskii krai and Republic of Altai . 27 I am most thankful to all collectors who donated me their material for study. My deepest gratitude is extended to Dr. I.H. Tuf ( Olomouc , Czech Republic ), who kindly helped me with identification of Mecistocephalidae .
