Moravia mer., Velké Bílovice, Úzké Úlehle, 1 M, 2 F, 26.ix.2011 , J. Holuša leg., det et coll. P. veyseli occurs in southeastern Europe, southern Russia , northeastern Turkey , northern Iran , Transcaucasia, and Turkestan (Ciplak et al. 2002). The northwestern edge of its range is in the Pannonian part of eastern Austria and the CR (Franz 1961; Kaltenbach 1970; Holuša & Chládek 1998). P. veyseli has not been found beyond the borders of Pannonia in the CR (Holuša 2003; Holuša et al. 2008), in Slovakia (Holuša & Chládek 1998; Krištín et al. 2004), or even in Austria (Zuna-Kratky et al. 2009). In the CR, P. veyseli has been found at only four localities (Holuša et al. 2012b). It seems to have disappeared from two localities in the 1960s. The research suggests that P. veyseli in the CR is on the brink of extinction because of extreme fragmentation of suitable habitats and degradation of optimal habitats (Holuša et al. 2012b).
