Literature records

Both Popov (1967) and Osytshnjuk et al. (2005) cite A. taraxaci Giraud, 1861 View in CoL from Iran. The true Andrena taraxaci View in CoL is distributed from Central Europe to Turkey and Russia, but many morphologically similar species including A. orientana View in CoL have different and overlapping distributions, and have been separated by subsequent authors ( Schwenninger et al. 2015). It is not clear which taxon these previous authors may have been referring to.

Distribution

Hungary, North Macedonia, Romania, Bulgaria, Ukraine, Turkey, Cyprus, Israel and the West Bank, Lebanon, Jordan, Syria, Iran * ( Schwenninger et al. 2015; Wood et al. 2020a).
