Doratura (Doraturina) medvedevi Emeljanov, 1964: 404

Diagnosis. The extremely laterally compressed aedeagus ( Figs 31M–R ) and a deep incision on the prominent hind margin of the pregenital sternite ( Fig. 34D ) of the females distinguish this small species from D. concors and D. rusaevi .

Distribution ( Fig. 60B ). We examined specimens from Kazakhstan, Russia (Dagestan: type of D. novobiriuziacina ), and Ukraine. D. medvedevi is recorded also from Greece ( Drosopoulos et al., 1986). We failed to locate material for which the record for Greece was published. Therefore, the location of the collecting site is unknown to us. A locality near the Aegean coast seems plausible in view of the eastern distribution of this species.
