Agramma turanicum Horvath 1905

Description

Agramma turanicum (Horváth, 1905)

Distributed in Central Asia: known from Kazakhstan, Mongolia, and Uzbekistan (Péricart & Golub, 1996). First record for China.

Material examined. 1 3, 22 Ƥ, 3 larva V, Daquangou reservoir, 377 m, 15 km NWN of Shihezi, 29.VII.2010 (N. Vinokurov); 1 3, 7 Ƥ, Kekesuli Lake, 27 km NNE of Fuyun, 1287 m (47°01'N; 89°45'E), 28.VI.2011 (N. Vinokurov); 1 Ƥ, Xiaodong Gou forest protection, 11 km N of Altai, 1000–1100 m (47°56'N; 88°08'E), 30.VI.2011 (N. Vinokurov).

Note on the records of Agramma blandulum (Horváth, 1905) from China. Nonnaizab (1988) indicated A. blandulum from Inner Mongolia (China) and later Qi & Zhou (1994) indicated the same species from Xinjiang. However, this species is distributed in the Western Palearctic mainly from eastern Mediterranean west to South Urals (Orenburg) and Dagestan in the east (Péricart, 1983; Péricart & Golub, 1996; materials of ZISP). Records of this species from Mongolia and China should be referred obviously to A. minutum Horváth, 1874. The latter species is widely distributed in most parts of the southern Palearctic from the western Mediterranean in the west to the south of eastern Siberia (Irkutsk), Asian part of Kazakhstan, Altai, and Mongolia in the east (Golub, 1977; Petrova, 1978; Péricart, 1983; Péricart & Golub, 1996; Vinokurov et al., 2010). However, we have not seen these two species from China.
