Distribution.
Known from
Russia
(S Ural, Lower Volga) and
Hungary
. Also from
Cyprus
and
Ukraine
(
Crimea
).
Remarks.
The species was described from the vicinity of
Volgograd
(Sarepta),
Russia
.
Anikin
et al
. (1999)
mention that they have seen only a single old specimen originating from the region collected by Christoph, and suppose that the species has vanished from its
type
locality. Thus, our records might represent the first record from
Russia
since the original description in the 19
th
century. The habitat is a meadow with plenty of
Glycyrrhiza glabra
L. and
Limonium gmelini
(Willd.)
.
