Type locality. Originally described from ‘ Smyrna, Graecea?’ (WEISE 1886). Due to the lectotype designation by FOGATO (1981), the type locality is restricted to ‘Smyrna’ [= Turkey, İzmir].
Type material. LECTOTYPE: ♁, ‘ Smyrna [w, h] // Zool. Mus. / Berlin [w, p] // LECTOTYPUS / Nymphius / lydius (Wse) / des. W. Fogato 1980 [red label, h]’ (ZMHB).

Bionomics. In Turkey reported from Crataegus orientalis (Rosaceae), Anagyris foetida and Robinia pseudoacacia (Fabaceae) (GÖK & DURAN 2004).
Distribution. Bulgaria (MOHR 1966, 1969; GRUEV & TOMOV 1986, 1998, 2007),? Greece (WEISE 1886), Turkey (WEISE 1886, LABOISSIÈRE 1913, TOMOV & GRUEV 1975, GRUEV & TOMOV 1979, FOGATO 1981, ASLAN 1998, ASLAN et al. 2000, GÖK & DURAN 2004, this paper), Iran (BERTI & RAPILLY 1973). Listed also from Armenia but without precise data (WILCOX 1973, FOGATO 1981).
Comments. During my visit to SMNS I had the possibility to examine also two specimens (males) labelled: ‘ Asia minor / Konia / S. v Bodemeyer [w, h] // TYPE [pink label, p] // Luperus / lydius / n. sp. Wse. [w, h] // Coll. / Piesbergen [w, p]’ and ‘Asia min. / Konia / 0.30 v Bodem. [w, h] // Asia minor / Konia / v Bodemeyer [w, p] // Coll. / Piesbergen [w, p]’. The identification label seems to be written by Weise. However, specimens from Konia are not mentioned in the original description, and these two specimens cannot thus be included in the type series.
