03D5879CFFDA8302F91AF92BFDAAFC65.taxon	discussion	Comments: Out of the three original male syntypes, only two specimens were present in the Staudinger collection at MFNB, one of which was designated as lectotype by Korb (2012: 40). The state and whereabouts of the third male paralectotype is currently unknown. The type locality has been inferred to be near “ Lepsinsk ” (= Lepsy) at the northern rim of the Alatau range as this is also the place mentioned by Haberhauer (as “ Lepsa ”) in his report (Staudinger, 1881: 254), most likely in the foothills and mountains south of the town.	en	Eckweiler, Wolfgang, Grishin, Nick V., Häuser, Christoph L.

The status and inclusion of the two taxa named by Lukhtanov under myops is considered provisionally, as representatives from those two taxa could not yet be subjected to a genomic analysis.	en	Eckweiler, Wolfgang, Grishin, Nick V., Häuser, Christoph L.

The known range appears well separated from the other species of the group, but records from other parts of western Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan are currently still missing.	en	Eckweiler, Wolfgang, Grishin, Nick V., Häuser, Christoph L.

03D5879CFFD2830AFA46F81CFD53FDE7.taxon	discussion	Comments: Largely based on the molecular data obtained (see above, fig. 31), we recognize babatagi here as a separate species from myops, with which it appears most closely related. The species can also be separated from myops by its slightly larger size and much reduced apical ocellus, and its known range lies to the south of but clearly separated from myops. Apart from the type material collected by Vadim Tshikolovets in 1987 and a series obtained by Vladimir Lukhtanov in 1989, very little appears to be known yet about this taxon. During the course of this study it became evident that our results should still be considered as preliminary, as we could not analyse all relevant populations or described taxa genetically, and examinations of further material as well as additional field studies are clearly called for.	en	Eckweiler, Wolfgang, Grishin, Nick V., Häuser, Christoph L.
