Tettigometra angulata Lindberg, 1948: 19 View in CoL

T. angulata Lindberg View in CoL : Dlabola (1972) [listed], Nast (1972) [listed], Mirzayans (1995), Mozaffarian & Wilson (2011).

Material examined. Alborz province: Karaj, Azadbar , 70 km W. Karaj, 2410 m, 10.vii.1995, leg. R. Linnavuori, 1 specimen ( NMWC); Azarbayejan-e Sahrghi: Majareh-Khalkhal, 22.vii.1996, leg. R. Linnavuori, 1 specimen ( NMWC) ; Esfahan province: Kashan, 33°59’N 51°26’E, 25.v.1970, leg. Abaii, 1 specimen ( HMIM) GoogleMaps ; Fars province: 10 km S. Dehbid, 2000 m, 14.vi.1996, leg. R. Linnavuori, 1 specimen ( NMWC) ; Kerman province: Rafsanjan, 30°24’N 55°58’E, 17.iv.1971, leg. Safavi / Zairi, 2 specimens ( HMIM); Kohkiluyeh va Boirahmad province GoogleMaps : 2 specimen (HMIM).

Distribution and habitat. Transcaucasia, Turkey, Israel, Iran, Afghanistan and Central Asia ( Mozaffarian & Wilson 2011). Distribution in Iran is from northwest to south ( Fig. 31 View FIGURES 24–39 ). The known distribution of the species in Iran appears to be in the continuation of of the distributional area of the species in the west of Palaearctic. However, it remains absent in east parts of Iran, not connecting Central Asia and Afghanistan populations known for this species. Dlabola mentioned this species as arboreal-pontomediterranean ( Dlabola 1981) and arboreal-Caspian faunal element that is found in semi deserts and steppes ( Dlabola 1972). The elevation for the examined specimens ranges between 2000 m and 2410 m.
