Material. Tavush: Haghartsin monastery environs, N 40 ° 48 E 44 ° 53, 1440 – 1700 m, 10. viii. 2017, 1 ♂ [2631]. Previous Armenian records. Rognes (1988: 325) mentioned that 1 ♂ and 1 ♀ of Pollenia amentaria had been set aside by Grunin in the ZIN collection together with all material of P. mystica and P. paragrunini, with a note to the effect that he regarded them all as forming a new taxon, “ Pollenia semicinerea ssp. n. 1969 ”. I identified both specimens after dissection. The male is from Armenia, Syunik province (“ 14 km from Gorisa, okr. Sisiana, 26 july 1970 ”), while the female is from Georgia (“ Khando, 20 km NW of Akhalkalaki, 8 August 1970 ”). Both specimens were collected by V. Richter. Distribution. Widespread in the Palaearctic Region, east to Xinjiang in China.
