Remarks.

This species was collected for the first time by Pieper in 1977 from Aperi in Karpathos Island and described later by Schütt (1980). The type locality was the only known locality where Pseudamnicola pieperi occurred.

In 2012, we found several specimens of Pseudamnicola pieperi in the type locality. The seven new localities, where the species was found, are located in the central and northern part of the island. In the majority of the new localities, the population abundance was medium to high.
