Previous records from Turkey: Zwick (1975), Kazanci (1982, 2008, 2009).

Material examined. Above Kayabasi, south Sögüt, Ak Daglari , 29°51'E / 36°57'N, 6-V-97, 1♀ (Vinçon coll.), GoogleMaps Rize, Ovitdagi gecidi, S. slope of the pass, 2600 m a.s.l., 40°48'E / 40°37'N, 12-V-97, 4♂ (Vinçon coll.) GoogleMaps .

Affinities. C. arensis belongs to the pedestris group that has a mainly central Asian distribution ( Zwick & Sivec 1980).

Ecology. Orophilic, stenothermic cold water species, occurring in fast flowing and rather large mountain streams, mainly between 1000 and 2000 m a.s.l. ( Zhiltzova 1964) and up to 2600 m in the Eastern Pontic Mountains. The adults emerge in spring (II- VI) and are often captured on snow.

Distribution. Caucasus, Armenia and Anatolia. In Anatolia, it was only known from the Ankara region ( Zwick 1975, Kazanci 1982), but its distribution extends over the whole peninsula, from the eastern Pontic Mountains up to the south-western coast (Ak Daglari) ( Fig. 12 View Fig ).
