Key to subspecies of G. holtzi View in CoL

1 Pronotum slender; its surface quite smooth and tubercles indistinct; prozona very low, its lobes indistinct; metazona long (5–6.1 in male; 6–7 in female) and narrow; lateral projections of mesozona indistinct (Figs. 4a, b, c, d); female with smallest size in the species (27–31.8 mm); hind tibia dark blue in basal part, apical 1/4 turns to red; male tegmina reaching beyond hind knee (Figs. 4a, c); found from Bozkır and environments ( Fig.16) ................................................................................................... turcicus Ünal, ssp.n.

- Pronotum stout with distinct tubercles (except some individuals of G. holtzi pulchripes View in CoL ); prozona high, its lobes distinct; metazona shorter (4–5.4 in male; 4.7–6.7 in female) and broad; lateral projections of mesozona very distinct ( Figs. 1–3: a, b, c, d); female with larger size (30–36 mm) ........................................... 2

2 Male tegmina ( Figs. 1a, c) distinctly shortened, shorter than 12 mm, reaching at most tohalf of hind femur or in well prepared specimens reaching to 5th–6th abdominal tergites;metazona short and broad, 1.5 times broader than long in male; hind tibia dark blue in basal part, apical 1/3 turns to red; found from W of Central Anatolia ( Fig. 16) ...........................................................................................brachypterus Ünal , ssp.n .

- Male tegmina (Figs. 2–3: a, c) long, longer than 12 mm, reaching at least to genicular lobes of hind femur or in well prepared specimens reaching to genital region of abdomen (mostly reaching to hind knee and beyond it); metazona 1.4 times broader than long in male.......................................................................... 3

3 Lateral margins of metazona concave (Fig. 2a); male tegmina narrow (3.2–5 mm); reaching mostly to hind knee in typical forms (Figs. 2a, c), in some others reaching to genicular lobes of hind femur or just beyond hind knee; inner side of hind tibia predominantly dark blue in basal 1/2–3/4 part, apical part turns to red or orange-red, in some specimens fully black, dark blue or violet; known from middle part of Central Anatolia ( Fig. 16) .................................................................................................... pulchripes (Uvarov) View in CoL

- Lateral margins of metazona straight ( Fig. 3a); male tegmina broad (4.9–5.7 mm) and long, reaching always to hind knee or beyond it ( Figs. 3a, c); inner side of hind tibia dark red or bluish-red in typical forms, in some other specimens basal part dark blue, apical 1/3 part turns to red as in G. holtzi pulchripes View in CoL ; known from SE of Central Anatolia ( Fig. 16) ....................................................................... holtzi (Werner) View in CoL
