Poecilimon tauricola Ramme, 1951: 331; Poecilimon tauricola Ramme, 1951 in Bey-Bienko, 1954: 293; Poecilimon tauricola Ramme, 1951 in Karabag, 1964: 39; Poecilimon tauricola Ramme, 1951 in Ünal, 2010: 141; Poecilimon (Poecilimon) tauricola Ramme, 1951 in Mol et al. 2016: 86; Poecilimon tauricola Ramme, 1951 in Kaya, 2018: 93; Poecilimon (Poecilimon) tauricola Ramme, 1951 in Sevgili et al. 2018: 13.

Remarks.

A detailed description of the species can be found in Ramme (1951) and Sevgili et al. (2018). Sevgili et al. (2018) also present extensive illustrative material and song descriptions. P. tauricola shows a sister-group relationship with P. azizsancar and both were suggested as P. tauricola subgroup ( Sevgili et al. 2018), as confirmed by DNA phylogeny presented here. Data given in Kaya (2018) under P. tauricola , refers to P. azizsancar .

Distribution.

This species is known only from its type locality and close surroundings, Nigde, Ulukışla (Fig. 1 , Table 1 , and Sevgili et al. (2018)).

Material examined.

See population 1 in Table 1 .
