Diagnosis. The new species is closely related to isotima, the external differences are discussed under the diagnosis of the preceding species. The male genitalia are also very similar but the whole apparatus of vera is smaller, the distal part of the valva is shorter and the harpe is also shorter with more or less straight posterior half. In the female genitalia isotima has the dorsal plate of the ostium bursae smaller but more defined and the signa much shorter and weaker and are equal in size. Distribution. The new species is known only from the eastern-northeastern parts of Turkey from the vicinity of the Hazar Lake to the Tahir gorge in the Karasu-Aras Mts.
