Reason for exclusion

Andrena nanaeformis was described from Ukraine, and is sparingly distributed from east Germany and Austria eastwards to Russia (European part, Urals, Western Siberia, Eastern Siberia; Schmid-Egger & Scheuchl 1997; Gusenleitner & Schwarz 2002; Proshchalykin et al. 2017a). It therefore has a distribution across the Eurasian cold steppe; Warncke did not record this taxon from the steppe of Turkey. Instead, he described two very similar species, A. luscinia and A. sedentaria (see above), that are found on the forest steppes of Turkey and Iran. Because of this different ecological distribution, we consider A. nanaeformis to be unconfirmed from Iran until this specimen can be carefully compared to Warncke’s type material.
