Mapping procedure:

The distribution area map was created using published data (Tulupnikov, 1960; State, 1994, 2004). The distribution area within the former USSR covers the Lower Volga regions, Krasnodar and Stavropol. krais, Transcaucasia (Azerbaijan), regions of the Ukraine, and Kirgizia (Samsonov, 1967; Prutskov, 1970; Bujukli, 1983).
