From editor or global species database
Extinction Probably extinct since 1980s [details] Type locality Western coast of Aral Sea, near well Kara-Kibir (Kantor, 2010) [details] Type material ZIN, holotype [details] Validity The species has been listed as accepted in recent species catalogues, but there is considerable doubt about its validity given the morphological similarity to congeners (see Wesselingh et al. 2019). Until molecular data are available to ascertain its identity, we treat the present species as a nomen dubium. [details]
