Mimas tiliae (Linnaeus, 1758)

Remarks. There is a specimen of Mimas tiliae in SMCR labelled “ Pakistan, Great Karakorum Mts., W of Chikar, 4000–4500 m, VIII. 2009, leg. V. Gurko”. This is almost 2000 km from the nearest previously known locality in the Aktubinsk region of northwest Kazakhstan, and over 2000 km from the next closest localities in northern Iran and Krasnoyarsk Kray, Russia. Although the possibility of a relict montane population of M. tiliae in the Karakorum Mountains cannot be excluded, we consider the presence of this species in Pakistan unconfirmed until further specimens are forthcoming.
