Annotation: The localisation of the Zakynthos record (Vöth 1981: 65) is somewhat mysterious: »Sakynthos; 7–8 km S, an Gebüschrändern, ca. 200 m«. Taken literally this is clearly far offshore. Within the MGRS grid 34S »DG 97« given for its position, elevations around and above 200 m (»200–250 m« on the voucher label at WU) are found only in direction clearly SE and only 4–7 km from Zakynthos chóra (i. e. Mt. Skopós S of Argási). Other corresponding elevations are SW of the town, in a distance of 8 (or more) km, but this would be within DG 87. [2016-01-17]
