Meoneura stepposa Ozerov, 1994 View in CoL

stepposa Ozerov, 1994: 140 View in CoL ( Meoneura View in CoL ). Type-locality: Mt Kokshe-Tau ( Kazakhstan).

kerzhneri Ozerov, 2011: 3 View in CoL ( Meoneura View in CoL ). Type-locality: “Central Aimak, environs of Nalaych” ( Mongolia) — syn.n.

During the comparison of the holotype of M. stepposa View in CoL with the holotype of M. kerzhneri View in CoL it was discovered that they are conspecific. So, we consider name kerzhneri View in CoL as a junior synonym of stepposa View in CoL .
