Material.
4 specimens. Unnumbered. "Alexandrowskajgebirge, Kappak-District, Turkestan" [Alexandrowskaja Mountains]; leg H. Rolle V.[19]06.
Remarks.
We could not find a precise modern equivalent for this locality, but older atlases indicate an “Alexandergb.” mountain range which corresponds to the Kyrgyz Ala-Too mountains east of Lake Issyk-Kul in Kyrgyzstan. There is also a town of “Alexandrowskaya” on older maps, probably close to the modern Baikonur Cosmodrome (Kazakhstan), but this is in lowlands nearer the Aral Sea.
