Peltodonia sp. n.

Material examined: Saudi Arabia : 5♀♀, Al Bahah, Al Mukhwah Dhi Ayn Arch. vill., 19°55'46''N, 41°26'30''E, 740 m, 11.V.2011, leg. Sharaf ( cAss) ; 2♀♀, same data, but 19°55'47''N, 41°26'34''E, 23.IX.2011, leg. Sharaf ( cAss).

Comment: The above specimens, all them unfortunately females, evidently represent an undescribed species of Peltodonia BERNHAUER 1936 closely related to P. bodemeyeri BERNHAUER 1936 from Turkey. Males would be desirable for a description.
