Dichorrhinus pseudoscythropus Desbrochers, 1875: 9 (description).

Material examined

3 ♂♂, 2 ♀♀, “ SYRIA bor., 4. Vi. 1999 Jabal al Ansariyah mts. Slinfeh env. (E of Latakia) 1300 – 1600 m a.s.l. S. Benedikt leg.” (cSB, cRB).

Remark

A female syntype is depicted in Stüben et al. (2012) with the following label data (taken from photo): “ Dichorrhinus pseudoscythro-pus Desb. [followed by a female sign] Syria: Djebel - Malbeck. Desbr. [handwritten]” (in coll. Heyden, SDEI). After L. Friedman (written communication 2012), the name Malbeck or Naalbec very likely refers to Baalbeck, nowadays a city in Lebanon.
