Tituboea heptneri (MEDVEDEV, 1957)

New record:

Afghanistan, Kabul Province, 5 km NW Kabul, Kargha locality, 2000 m, 15- 16.05.2010, 3 exx.; the same place, 1- 2.06.2010, 2 exx.

New to Afghanistan. Described from Iran. This species is insufficiently studied and poorly known. The finding of this species in Afghanistan suggests of its larger range. The material examined supplements with data on the variability of colouration of this species: pronotum with or without two blurred piceous spots at basal margin, 4 dark spots on elytron vary in size from medium-sized to small, dot-shaped, legs and last segment of abdomen black or legs entirely yellow.
