Hylaeus ( Dentigera) glacialis MORAWITZ, 1872 – DATHE et al.

2016: 15, 45.

Material examined: Erzurum: Oltu, Başaklı, Karadağ Mt , 2100 m, 24.07.2005, , leg. H. Özbek ( on Eryngium billardieri ) ; Çamlıbel Karakolu , 1900 m, 01.07.2000, , leg. H. Özbek ; Tortum / Narman Kireçli Dağı Geçidi W, 2100 m, 14.07.1984 , , A.W. Ebmer. Hakkâri: Varagöz , 37°25N 44°13E, 1650 m, 02.08.1986, , leg. S. M. Blank ; Oramar , 10 km NE, 1700 m, 29.06.1985, , leg. M. Schwarz.

Remarks: It is remarkable that both taxa H. giresunus and H. glacialis are said to occur side by side in two provinces ( Erzurum, Hakkâri). Errors in older determinations cannot be completely ruled out here. To answer this question, females will have to be compared.

Distribution: Has a disjunctive range in high mountain locations ( 1500–2100 m) of the Pyrenees, Alps, the Balkans and Asia Minor. Turkey: Erzurum, Hakkâri ( Fig. 17 .II).
