Examined material: Not confirmed by the author. The author has reviewed 16 specimens of A. ahrensii from V. Pūtele collection [Jelgava, 05.VIII.1977 (1 ex., aerodrome, leg. V. Pūtele) and 15 exx without labels], but all these specimens are belong to Sphaeroderma testaceum.

Host plants: Ranunculaceae (Clematis).

General distribution: SE and E Europe (from Italy and Austria to Greece, Rumania, SE Poland, Ukraine, Belarus and central Russia), N Caucasus. [CEU]

Note: The occurrence of this species in Latvian fauna is doubtful and needs further confirmation. In Fennoscandia and Baltic states, recorded only from Latvia (Silfverberg 2004).
