Comment.

Dolichopoda lustriae was originally described from Μt. Pselovuni of Etolia-Akarnania. Two more populations were added in the following years: Mt. Vardousia Fokidos ( Alexiou et al. 2014) and Pades Ipiros (Davranoglou et al. 2018). The new populations added here demonstrate the wide distribution of the species along the high altitudes of the Pindos mountain range (Fig. 9 ), which may imply the more epigean biological circle of D. lustriae , as discussed at Davranoglou et al. (2021).
