Remarks. The specimens from Turkey shows a general conformity with Axonopsis persica Pešiċ, 2004 , a species so far known only from one locality in Kermanshah Province in the Western part of Iran ( Pešiċ 2004). The additional record presented here confirm a much more extended distribution of this species and the subgenus Navinaxonopsis in the Near and Middle East area. Figure 5 View FIGURE 5 A – G A-G show some morphological details of the specimens from Bingöl Province.
