Distribution. N.W. Anatolia: Bursa, Uludağ and its vicinity ( Fig. 843 ).

Remarks. Much material has been studied, and it is possible to see specimens completely without tympanum and some others with a reduced, very small tympanum in the same locality. All of them undoubtedly belong to this species.

One female from Amasya is certainly this species, but its label must be attached erroneously as is the case of one historical male of N. furvus furvus (see the Remarks section of P. straubei and N. furvus furvus ).
