Comment:
Status: IUCN - Vulnerable
Comment:
Comments: Monographed by Topachevskii (1969) and maintained as a species by Pavlinov and Rossolimo (1987, 1998) and Pavlinov et al. (1995a). Zagorodnyuk (1992b) endorsed the synonymy. Chromosomal features (2n = 60, FN = 115-120) recorded by Lyapunova et al. (1974) and summarized by Nevo et al. (2001). Reviewed by Gromov and Erbajeva (1995). Although not currently recorded from Romania, it has been identified at Pleistocene localities in that country (Kowalski, 2001)
