Material examined. PAKISTAN, [Azad Jammu and Kashmir,] Peer Chinassi [Pir Chinasi], 14. vii. 2012, Qammar Abbas ( NIBGE); [Islamabad,] Faisal Masjid, 9. vii. 2012, M. Zia ( NIBGE); Babul Quaid, [Quaid-i- Azam University], 8. vii. 2012, Saleem Akhtar ( NIBGE).

Remarks. This species is widely distributed in India, but records are scattered and it seems to be rarely collected. There are also two females in the BMNH captured at Kandy, Sri Lanka, in September 1991, but recent records from that country are lacking. This is the first record of this species from Pakistan.
