Comment. GD did not examine the type of C. argenteopilosa but discovered a series of specimens identified as such by Bouček in NMP.
Distribution. Widely distributed in the Oriental (India), Palaearctic (Iran, Saudi Arabia, Egypt) and Afrotropical regions (southwards to Tanzania). Within Iran this Brachymeria has hitherto been reported from southern Iran (Masi 1924, 1951; Lotfalizadeh et al. 2012: as B. persica). The present record of this species from northern Iran extends the distribution of this species to the Iranian plateau.
