Therefore, we recognize P. bi t h y ni ca as a valid taxon. However, the subspecific rank of P. bacurianica adana Vinçon & Zhiltzova is retained. Type country and locality.

Map ( Fig. 45 ). Distribution and ecology. An Anatolian endemic species also reported from the Greek Lesbos Island, in close proximity to the Anatolian coast. It is a eurytopic species that occurs in various types of mountain streams. The report from European Turkey (Kırklareli, Kazancı 2009a ) possibly corresponds to the closely related species of the same species group, P. strandschaensis Braasch & Joost, 1972 .
