Abstract

The type locality of Rhagodes caucasicus Birula, 1905 is corrected and identified as Tuzluca (Kul'p), Iğdir Province, eastern Turkey instead of Armenia. A new record for the Iranian solpugid fauna is also reported: Rhagodes caucasicus Birula, 1905 from Zanjan Province, northwestern Iran. The redescription of new material of Rhagodes caucasicus from Turkey is included.
