Ochthebius (Ochthebius) monseti Jäch & Delgado 2010 View in CoL

Material examined. Loc. 10: 1 ♀; Loc. 11: 26 spec. (1 ♁ used for DNA extraction, voucher No. IBE-RA124, sequences published in ABELLÁN et al. 2013; VILLASTRIGO et al. 2019).

Notes. New record for Oman. The species was described with material from UAE and southwestern Iran ( JÄCH & DELGADO 2010), although the distribution of the species is somewhat uncertain, as part of the type material was subsequently recognised to be a different species, O. mahmoodi (see above). In addition to the specimen from Oman (voucher IBE-RA124) we have sequenced a specimen from Iran (voucher IBE-RA740, prov. Khuzestan, Behbahan, Garmabeh river, 5.v.2011, E. Irani leg.) and found them to be sisters, although at a considerable genetic distance (ca. 5% in the gen COI-5’, unpublished data).
