[mihi] ♂ ♀ [handwritten by Friedrich Julius Schilsky on bluish paper] // [the following label of red paper was added:] Lectotype Polydrusus (Conocetus) rhodiacus (Schilsky, 1912) labelled C. Germann 2016 (MFN). Type locality CYPRUS. Other material examined CYPRUS: 1 ♂, Dionos (Chypre), 28 May 1974, coll. Voříšek (BMNH); 1 ♂, Nicosie (SDEI). TURKEY: 2 ♂, Adana, As m. [= Asia minor], coll.

Discussion
Remarks The type locality given in the original description “Auf Rhodos” [on Rhodes] is wrong and should not be used in faunistic references, as in Dalla Torre et al. (1936). Charles Zürcher himself (Zürcher 1919: 159) corrected the origin of the type specimens from “Rhodes” to “L’ île de Chypre”. The present record from Gündogmus is the first for mainland Turkey.
