Material examined

TURKEY – Isparta Province • 2 ♂♂, 6 ♀♀; Eğridir, Taşköy; 11 Jun. 1973; F. Önder leg.; LEMT . – Kütahya Province • 1 ♂, 1♀; Domaniç; 19 Jun. 1975; F. Önder leg.; LEMT .

Comments

This species was recorded from Isparta, Turkey by Önder (1976) and, based on this record, reported from Turkey by Kerzhner & Josifov (1999). This species is strictly Sibero-European without any records from Southwestern Asia, Caucasus, Turanian region, Central Asia, or northern Africa ( Aukema 2023) so its record from the Mediterranean region of Turkey could seem questionable. However, examination of the relevant specimens proved that they belong to D. rufipennis , confirming its presence in Turkey.
