Barcoding.

Five barcodes were obtained from the specimens ZFMK-TISs 8008063, 8008064, 8008084, 8008100 and 8008386 (BOLD:AAU8188, mean p -distance 1.0%), with the nearest neighbor in BOLD Systems C. frisia from Norway (BOLD:AAU8188, 0.46%, 0.15%, 0.15%, 0.31%, 0.61% respective p -distances).

Remarks.

This species is distributed from Spain east to West Siberia, north to the Scandinavian Peninsula, and south to Georgia (the record from Bulgaria is unpublished (Blagoev et al. 2018)) (Nentwig et al., 2023; Otto 2023). It is the first record of C. frisia from Georgia and the southernmost one within the known range. Until Wunderlich and Schuett (1995), this species was treated as C. similis, from which the males of C. frisia are distinguished by a shorter distance between the embolus curvature and the tibial apophysis (best viewed in prolateral) (notably longer in C. similis), while the females have a longer receptacula seminis (shorter in C. similis).
