Originally described from

Turkey
. Both known Turkish specimens are worn.

flies from late May to the middle of August from about
800 m
up to about
2,650 m
above sea-level. Male and female genitalia of
E. siata
, belonging to the
graphata
species-group, will be described and illustrated in a further publication in due course.
