Distribution: Turkey.

Flight period: May–June ( Hazir et al. 2014).

Material examined: HOLOTYPE: TURKEY: Ankara, 1.vi.1934, A. Seitz (♀) ( SMFM) ; PARATYPES: TURKEY: same as holotype (2♀) ( ZMHB) .

Remarks. Members of the Truncandrena with orange tarsi have been greatly confused; Warncke adopted a lumping approach and united most taxa (as subspecies) under either A. minapalumboi Gribodo or A. oulskii Radoszkowski. Subsequent authors have reinstated some of these names such as A. delphiensis Warncke ( Greece, Gusenleitner & Schwarz 2002) or simply used them as good taxa ( Hazir et al. 2014). Though confused ( Schuberth et al. 2001), the use of the name A. oulskii was stabilised as a Truncandrena species by Wood (2021b). It is therefore necessary to reinstate the taxa A. noacki and A. ochraceohirta Alfken from their Warncke baseline of synonymy with A. oulskii and A. minapalumboi ( Gusenleitner & Schwarz 2002) . These changes bring the taxonomic baseline into line with current use of these names and concepts ( Hazir et al. 2014).

Andrena noacki has dark terga and complete hair bands on terga 1–2 ( Fig. 179 View FIGURES 179–187 ), whereas A. oulskii has redmarked terga ( Fig. 181 View FIGURES 179–187 ), and in A. ochraceohirta sp. resurr. and A. oulskii the hair bands on terga 1–2 are always interrupted ( Figs. 180–181 View FIGURES 179–187 ). The latter character is independent of the age of the specimen, as fresh A. ochraceohirta never have complete hair bands on terga 1–2, so it is not the result of abrasion. Andrena noacki is currently known only from the Central Anatolian plateau of Turkey, and is therefore isolated from A. ochraceohirta in the southern Levant.
