Comments

This species was recorded from Turkey by Önder (1976), based on specimens that were collected from Karabük and preserved in British Museum of Natural History. However, this species is distributed locally in Balkan Peninsula, and it is highly likely that these specimens belong to Odontoplatys suturalis (Jakovlev, 1883) , a Ponto-Caucasian species that is widely distributed along the Black Sea costs of Turkey ( Çerçi et al. 2022). Therefore, this record needs confirmation.
