Description
Summary:Acupalpus (Acupalpus) parvulus (STURM 1825) G e n e r a l d i s t r i b u t i o n: East and West Siberia, Middle Asia, Middle East, Transcaucasia, Europe (from central Russia in the east to France and northern Iberian Peninsula in the west and southwest, and from Fennoscandia in the north to Italy and the Balkan Peninsula in the south and southeast). D i s t r i b u t i o n i n M i d d l e E a s t: Reliable records were so far known from Turkey (JAEGER 1992: 226, JAEGER 1999: 962), Iran (JAEGER 1999: 962) and Afghanistan (JAEGER 1999: 962). The records of A. dorsalis (= A. parvulus) from Afghanistan, Kabul and Kandahar (JEDLIČKA 1955: 191) refers to A. maculatus (SCHAUM) (specimens from Kandahar) and A. flaviceps (specimens from Kabul), according to revised specimens collected by Klapperich at this localities. The records from Afghanistan, "Khurd-Kabul" (MANDL 1967: 463) respectively "Churd-Kabul" (JEDLIČKA 1967: 73) refer to A. flaviceps, according to revised specimens. Another record of A. dorsalis from Afghanistan, Kunduz (JEDLIČKA 1967: 73) is based on a atypical female which can not be assigned with certainty to A. parvulus or A. maculatus. Other collections from the same locality may show whether A. parvulus occur there. The following additional material from the Middle East, including first records for the Turkish provinces Bitlis, Erzincan, Erzurum, Hakkâri and Samsun, and for the Iranian provinces Chahar-Mahal Bakhtiari, Esfahan, Kerman, Khorasan, Lorestan and Mazandaran, has been examined. Other collections from the Gilgit-Baltistan region in northeastern Pakistan show that the species occurs probably also farther east of Iran and Afghanistan. However, this female record from Pakistan needs verification by males from the same area.
