Alas, the closest localities known to me are Krasnodar Territory neat Black Sea coast, If you need I can check.

In my collection, besides two specimens from Syria, there is one labelled "Sicilia, IV. 12, P.Rizano [??-difficult to decipher], Fudakow.".

GRC:

"Pelop.m.14-15/6.74 | Mt.Taigetos | Asafigion [w, p]"

"Pelopones NW | Ahaia distr. | Petrohori env. | 1.-13.6.2009 [w, p]"

ALB

"ALBANIA, Dhërmi, | 40°10'12"N, | 19°35'09"E | 6.7.2013 [w, p]"

"ALBANIA | Lukovë env. | 5.V.2015 [w, p]"

Thank you. I will add the locations on the map, together to the GBIF locations.

Dear Adrian Ruicanescu in addition to the previous expert answers please also have a look at the following fairly recent publication which might add some useful facts to your map:

Preprint Capnodis cariosa Pallas, 1776 (Coleoptera: Buprestidae) foun...

This preprint has been posted by the authors as public full text on RG, so you can freely download it as pdf file.

Good luck with your research and best wishes!

Thank you Frank, but I am one of the authors of that preprint. I asked this question in addition to make that paper.

My best wishes to you too.

Dear Adrian, many thanks for the information. To me this just shows that you are a leading expert in this field. 😎
