Comment | Synonymy: ARNOLD 1980 synonymized A. neumanni with A. sinaitus. MELNIKOV et al. 2013, 2015 and TAMAR et al. 2016 consider Pseudotrapelus neumanni as a valid species. However, Melnikov’s description/diagnosis seems rather vague, without any illustrations or phylogenetic analysis. Distribution: see maps in TAMAR et al. 2016: Fig. 1, Tamar et al. 2019: Fig. 1, Tamar et al. 2023: 1034 (Fig. 1). |
