There is a specimen of Mimas tiliae in SMCR labelled “ Pakistan , Great Karakorum Mts., W of Chikar, 4000–4500 m , VIII. 2009 , leg. V. Gurko”. This is almost 2000 km from the nearest previously known locality in the Aktubinsk region of northwest Kazakhstan , and over 2000 km from the next closest localities in northern Iran and Krasnoyarsk Kray, Russia . Although the possibility of a relict montane population of M. tiliae in the Karakorum Mountains cannot be excluded, we consider the presence of this species in Pakistan unconfirmed until further specimens are forthcoming.
