In most publications the incorrect subsequent spelling tamaricis was used. The records from Canary Islands, Egypt, Bosnia Hercegovina, Romania, Russia (ST), Ukraine, Azerbaijan, and Georgia are erroneous. Tuponia tamaricis var. cunealis is possibly a synonym of T. mixticolor. Wagner (1955o: 449) upgraded cunealis to subspecies, but his conclusions were based on specimens from France, not from North Africa. The records from Albania (Mancini (1953), Croatia, Bosnia Hercegovina, Macedonia and Serbia (Protić, 1998a) are doubtful.
