DISTRIBUTION IN
TURKEY
. —
Ankara
.
REMARKS
After redescription and
lectotype
designation of
T. semilaeve
André, 1883
recent studies showed that distribution of this species is restricted to the Western Mediterranean area (
Borowiec
et al.
2015
).
Borowiec
et al.
(2015)
also confirmed that
T. galaticum
is a distinct species from the
T. semilaeve
, and suggested that probably most of
T. semilaeve
records from North-eastern part of Mediterranean basin refer to
T. galaticum
or other species of the
T. semilaeve
complex.
