NOTES. AKT was able to put side by side the Reichardt’s holotype of O. extraordinarius with (labeled “Vladivostok, Ost-Asien, Herm. Frieb. 2. VI 1914 (1919)” from the collection of ZIN as well as all-above mentioned more recent ZIN specimens of the species with a male and female from the type series of O. jakli Kapler. There is no doubt that these two taxa are conspecific. Apparently, Kapler never saw authentic material of O. extraordinarius and got confused dealing only with the keys of Reichardt and Kryzhnovskij. It should be noted that O. extraordinarius males possess a deep setose depression occupying most of the metaventral disc, making their identification pretty straightforward. DISTRIBUTION.
