French
L’espece a la marge anterieure du clypeus fortement concave entre les angles dentiformes, les cotes du pronotum avec un rebord lisse bien visible et meme elargie en avant, et surtout le scutellum ponctué uniquement pres de sa base. La massue antennaire du male a une longueur bien plus importante que celle de la femelle.
Sa repartition est vaste de l’Anatolie, du Caucase, d’Iran, du Turkmenistan, du Kazakhstan et aussi du Nord de la Syrie et de la Jordanie. Son ethologie n’est pas bien connue.
English
The species differs from T.hirta by the strongly concave margin of the clypeus between the dented angles, by the borders of the pronotum with an edge smooth quite visible and widened ahead, and mainly by the scutellum punctuated scutellum only near its base.
The antenna club of the male is much more long than that of the female.
Its distribution is vast in Anatolia, Caucasus, Iran, Turkmenistan, Kazakhstan and also in the North of Syria and Jordan. Its ethology is not well know.
