Catamicrophyllum caifanum Verhoeff, 1900 Records from Cyprus . Cyprus [unspecified locality] ( Enghoff, 1995 ). Distribution. Israel ( Verhoeff, 1923 ; Enghoff, 1995 ), Lebanon , south-central Turkey , eastern Iran , Cyprus ( Enghoff, 1995 ). The species is known from Cyprus only from one sample collected in 1862 ( Enghoff, 1995 ). Its absence from the quite abundant newly studied material supports the assumption of Golovatch et al . (2004) that the species was most likely introduced to Cyprus from the Near East, and might not have established a permanent population on the island.
