Comments. Prosodes vestita was interpreted as a subspecies of P. cribrella by Bogačev & Kryzhanovskij (1960) and Löbl et al. (2008), but differs from P. cribrella in distinctive characters, especially in females (see key to species and images), therefore it is raised to species level.
Distribution. Turkmenistan: Western Kopet Dag. Iran: Mazandaran (Ashuradeh Island), Golestan and North Khorasan provinces.
