Comments: The material reported by Roewer (1960b) as D. crocata was collected in Badghis, Bamyan, Ghazni, Herat, Kabul, and Farah. These specimens were later re-examined by Deeleman-Reinhold & Deeleman (1988), who identified them as D. afghana and D. zarudnyi . However, they also noted that the labels lacked precise localities; therefore, the provinces herein mentioned in “Records” are only those reported by Denis (1958).
