Note. In Iran it is possible to find the two forms marginatus and syriacus (sometimes together in the same stations), so we have mixed all the data by Modarres Awal (1987, 1996a), Yarmand et al. (2002), Hosseini & Linnavuori (2002), Sadaghian et al. (2002), Hassanzadeh et al. (2009a, b), Sadeghi et al. (2009), Askari et al. (2009), and Gharaat et al. (2009). Another subspecies ( C. marginatus orientalis Kiritshenko 1916 ) occurs in Japan, Korea, China, and Far East.
