Nemoura irani Aubert, 1964 View in CoL

Gəncə-Qazax region: 39: 1♂ (HNHM); 42: 2♂ 1♀ (MM); 43: 1♂ (SNM); Naxçıvan : 36: 1♂ (HNHM).

Remarks. This species was known only from the Alborz of Iran, where it is a widespread summer and autumnal emerging stonefly ( Aubert 1964, Theischinger 1976). This peculiar species shares an isolated position within the genus Nemoura , together with N. persica Zwick, 1980 (also endemic to the Alborz) and N. monae Joost, 1977 (known from the Greater Caucasus (Krasnodar Krai) and the Lesser Caucasus ( Georgia) – Zhiltzova 2003). In Azerbaijan, we collected the species both in the northeast (Gəncə-Qazax region) and the southwest (Naxçıvan) of the Lesser Caucasus. It was found in single or few specimens at high elevation seeps covered by tall sedges and other herbs. New for the fauna of Azerbaijan, and the whole of the Caucasian region.
