Mesalina pasteuri ( Bons, 1960:69) View in CoL

Baha El Din (1995, 2006a) reported Mesalina pasteuri from Egypt for the first time from the Siwa Oasis in the Western Desert and also assigned several older specimens previously attributed to M. guttulata to this form (e.g., Marx 1968; Farid 1979; FMNH 66078, BMNH 1938.8.4. 38). Despite the huge disjunction in the range of M. pasteuri (types from the Ahaggar, Algeria and no intervening records, Sindaco and Jermcenko (2008) accepted these records. There are no confirmed Libyan records, but the nearest Western Desert localities are only 5 km from the border ( Baha El Din 2006a), making it almost a certainty that this species, whether M. pasteuri sensu stricto or something else, occurs in inland Cyrenaica.
