Remarks.

I examined a female from Iran. This species may be reliably distinguished from other congeners by the following character states: (1) setae z6 present, (2) setae j1 fan-shaped and marginally serrate (other dorsal setae flattened, feather-shaped), (3) setae JV2 and JV3 on anteromedial surface of ventrianal shield, (4) pseudo-metasternal platelets enlarged and well developed, (5) prominent poroid structure on peritrematal shield present, (6) setae JV4 absent. Anterior margin of epistome in this species is produced into pointed central projection (originally illustrated as subtriangular, with rounded apex).
