Remarks

This species is reported by Gujabidze (2002) from Lagodekhi, Batsara canyon, but with the wrong species name and year of publication. Here, we report C. balu in the Caucasus for the first time, this species is very similar to C. alpina . We think it is likely that the report of C. alpina is actually C. balu and remove C. alpina from the checklist.

Distribution

Germany, Northern Europe, Siberia, Mongolia to the Pacific.
