REMARKS
Bračko et al. (2016) stated that all species identified as P. pallescens sensu Radchenko should be considered as a different species. This taxonomical problem was resolved two years later by Salata et al. (2018). The authors stated that all specimens previously determined as P. pallescens sensu Radchenko should be designed to P. perperamus. None of the specimens hitherto identified as P. pallescens in Turkey was clearly given as sensu Radchenko. Therefore, in our opinion all the specimens identified so far as P. pallescens from Turkey should remain in P. pallescens sensu Salata et al. (2018).
