Object remarks: The specimen should be examined and compared with specimens from different areas of Turkey, Cyprus, and Lebanon since Egypt can be excluded (cf. Zinner, 1972: 27-30). /EIÅ, 2016
Locality remarks: After comparing Zinner, 1972 and Hasselquist, 1757 I found it unlikely (but not impossible) that the specimen was collected near Selçuk in Turkey. Rather Izmir or Cyprus. /EIÅ, 2016.
