Diagnosis. The species is very similar to I. croceum (Morawitz, 1877), but has the body smaller. Its female has the ventral scopa yellowish-brown, with very narrow white hairs at side; the T1 laterally with dense punctation, interstices not reach puncture diameters, while the male has the metasomal terga yellow except maculation; the T1 laterally with dense punctation, interstices not reach puncture diameters.

Material examined. China, Xinjiang: Ürümqi Shi (43º48′N, 87º36′E), 20–800m, 1♂, 21.VI.1958, leg. Afu Tian; Toksun Xian (42º42′N, 88º36′E), 82 m, 6♂, 19.VI.1958, leg. Guang Wang; Shufu Xian (39º24′N, 75º48′E), 1200 m, 1♂, 20.VI.1959, leg. Guang Wang.

Flower association. Chondrilla sp. (Asteraceae) (Murao et al., 2015).

Distribution. China (Xinjiang), Algeria, Nigeria, Senegal, Mauritania, Burkina Faso, Morocco, Spain, Tunisia, Egypt, Israel, Russia (South of European part, North Caucasus), Turkey, Saudi Arabia, Yemen, Omen, United Arab Emirates, Iran, Turkmenistan, Afghanistan, Kazakhstan, Pakistan.

Remarks. All specimens from IZCAS are male; Wu (2006) identified them as I. flavipes (Morawitz, 1895) and redescribed the male. However, I. flavipes (Morawitz, 1895) was synonymized by Warncke (1980) as I. ferrugimeum (Fabricius, 1787).
