Comments

This Euro-Mediterranean species was recorded twice from Turkey (Önder 1976; Lodos et al. 2003). We examined specimens that these records refer to, and they were both females and could not be reliably identified to species level. However, their morphological and morphometric characters could reliably exclude D. (I.) pallicornis . Therefore, we excluded this species from the checklist.
