“…Two subspecies have been described, the nominate E. m. miliaris and E. m. nogaiorum (Nikolsky, 1910). Both Eskandarzadeh et al (2013) and Zarrintab et al (2017) suggest that E. miliaris does not occur in Iran. Given the uncertainty regarding the epithet E. miliaris vis-à-vis E. tataricus, we suggest not recognizing these subspecies pending much needed focal study of this potentially wide-ranging species.…”

“…Analyses of morphology (Eskandarzadeh et al, 2013) and mitochondrial DNA (Rastegar-Pouyani et al, 2008) indicated that some E. jaculus had been misidentified as E. elegans, and that the two species might be conspecific in northern Iran. Further examination suggests that E. elegans is a distinct species in northern Iran and that the confusion likely is owing to an incomplete dichotomous key for these species (Zarrintab et al, 2017). No subspecies are recognized.…”

“…Ancak Tokar ve Obst (1993) güneydoğu Avrupa ve Türkiye populasyonlarını E. j. turcicus alt türüne dâhil ederken nominant ırkın dağılış sahasını ise sadece Kuzey Afrika'da ve doğuda Süveyş Kanalı'na kadar olan bölge ile sınırlandırmıştır. Zarrintab et al (2017) İran'daki Eryx populasyonlarını incelemiş ve Kuhdasht populasyonunda dört örnekten üçünde subocular ile supralabial plakların temas halinde olduğunu; ancak bir örnekte arada bir sıra pul bulunduğunu ve temasın olmadığını rapor etmiştir. Çalışmada aynı habitatta bulunan bu örneklerde gözlenen bu karakterin taksonomik bir karakter olamayacağı ifade edilmiştir.…”

“…Distribution. Caucasus south around the Caspian Sea, east to western China and Mongolia (Wallach et al, 2014); possibly in Iran (Safaei-Mahroo et al, 2015), but see Eskandarzadeh et al (2013) and Zarrintab et al (2017).…”
