Leuctra klapperichi Murányi, 2005 View in CoL

Lənkəran region: 15: 7♂ (HNHM) .

Remarks. This species was hitherto known only from the holotype male, collected a half century before in the Alborz of Iran ( Murányi 2005). This second locality is in the Talysh Mts, forming the Azerbaijani section of the Alborz range (Hyrcanian forest ecoregion). The present specimens were collected at a single stream ( Fig. 7 View FIGURES 7–10 ), despite sampling efforts in several similar habitats of the region. We collected it together with more Leuctra fusca and a single L. collaris specimens. Unfortunately, no female was found, so the female of L. klapperichi remains undescribed. New for the fauna of Azerbaijan.
