Records from Iran.

Tehran Province - " Frauenfeldia elburensis " Starmühlner and Edlauer (1957).

Remarks.

Starmühlner and Edlauer (1957) originally described this species as Frauenfeldia elburensis . However, the genus name Frauenfeldia is preoccupied, and thus, the species of this genus have been re-assigned to Belgrandiella , Boleana , Graziana and Sarajana ( Radoman 1983). Due to the shape of the aperture in original description (see Starmühlner and Edlauer 1957) we affiliate this species to the genus Belgrandiella .

Distribution.

Iran, only known from the locus typicus (Gelandoah, 60 km NE of Tehran).
