Current status. Valid ( Carpenter 2001; Fateryga et al. 2021).

Remarks. Kostylev (1935) reported 20 specimens and the same quantity is available. However, he reported one specimen from Karvandar–Bampur (actually there are two), 17 specimens from Tshanshen–Sadk, Bampur (actually there are no specimens with such a label), one specimen from Kuusha–Larumba, Bampur (actually there are 17), and one specimen from Kulyut–Lyanger, Khorasan (this is correct). Anyway, all specimens can be considered belonging to the type series according to Art. 72.4.1.1 of ICZN (1999).
