Type material. Syntypes of Helops vicinus were not found by curators in the Muséum national d’Histoire naturelle Paris. Holotype, ♀ (ZIN) of Probaticus medvedevi with labels: Cyrilliс “Арм. ССР Алаверди 25.04.86 Мелях С.В.” (Armenian SSR, Alaverdi, 25.iv.1986, leg. S.V. Melyakh), “ Probaticus (Pelorinus) medvedevi Nabozhenko et Abdurakhmanov 2011 ”.
Material. 1♂, 2♀: “Kaukasus Leder”, “Allard type”, “ Coll. Reitter ”, “ Paratypus 1877 Helops vicinus Allard ” (curator’s label).
Notes. This very rare species was described in 1876 based on the specimen(s) from the collection of Reiche (Allard 1876) and redescribed in 1877 using the type specimen(s) and beetles collected by Leder (Allard 1877). Later, Schneider & Leder (1878) again published Allard’s redescription 1877 and added the species’ type locality: “Elisabetthal”. It was a settlement of German colonists, which is now called Asureti (Georgia, 41°35′45″N, 44°40′00″E). Both description and redescription (Allard 1876, 1877) have differences, and the latter is more consistent with specimens from Georgia and northern Armenia, as mentioned by Abdurakhmanov & Nabozhenko (2011). In addition, the Russian authors erroneously interpreted species from South Armenia and Nakhchivan as E. vicinus (described below as E. kalashiani sp. nov.) since Bogachev (1938). As a result, Abdurakhmanov & Nabozhenko described a new species Probaticus medvedevi, from northern Armenia (Figs 6D, F). Allard examined the specimens of Leder and confirmed that they belong to his species Helops vicinus, as he wrote in redescription (Allard 1877). The Leder’s specimens (Figs 6A–C, E, G–K) are not syntypes (as marked on the labels) because the original description was based on other specimens from the Reiche collection. The females from Georgia are conspecific to the female (holotype) of E. medvedevi despite the variability. As a result, I propose the following synonymy: Helops vicinus Allard, 1876 = Probaticus (Pelorinus) medvedevi Abdurakhmanov et Nabozhenko, 2011, syn. nov.
Distribution. Southern Georgia, northern area of Armenia.

Type material (studied). Holotype, ♂ (NMB): “ Persia Elburs-Gebg. Hüdepohl leg.”, “Lashgarak-Tal 12-4-63 ”, “ Holotypus Probaticus huedepohli n. sp. det H. Kulzer 1963” (Fig. 8C). Paratype, ♂ (HNHM) with the same geographic label and “ Paratypus 1964 Probaticus huedepohli Külzer ”, “ PARATYPUS Probaticus huedepohli n. sp. det. H. Kulzer 1963”, “ Probaticus huedepohli Kulz.

Vig);
Distribution. Iran (Demavend Mt. from ~ 2800 to 3500 m). I didn’t include Razavi Khorasan Province in the distribution based on the strange locality “Quchan, Kopet Dag, 3000 m ”, because the Iranian part of Kopet Dag mountains does not exceed 2000 m, and only one mount Kuh-e Patu (not Kopet Dag ridge) with the elevation near 3000 m is located 50 km west of Quchan. This mountain belongs to another mountain system (Turkmen-Khorasan mountains) than Demavend and and labelling raises doubts.

Remarks. Müller et al. (2012) referred to the fact that this species is mentioned from Egypt by Abu El-Hassan et al. (2010) without giving any locality or date. The focus of that project (Abu El-Hassan et al. 2010) was a cladistic analysis of Egyptian horse flies, and it was not relevant for them to refer to the date or localities for any species. Herein, the localities and dates of the specimens which were used in the cladistic analysis (Abu El-Hassan et al. 2010) are listed in the Specimens examined section.
