Extract

The genus Citellina was introduced by Prendel (1928) for a new species, C. dispar, which he described from Citellus suslika. Since that date a further nine nominal species have been referred to the genus, thus: C. alatau Spassky, Rijikov and Sudarikov, 1950; C. alpina Jettmar and Anschau, 1951; C. bashiri Akhtar, 1956; C. levini Li, 1933; C. marmotae Manter, 1930; C. petrowi Schulz, 1930; C. schulzi Korneev, 1951; C. skrjabini Merkuscheva, 1955 and C. triradiata (Hall, 1916) Manter, 1930. Descriptions and figures of eight of these species are given by Skrjabin, Schikhobalova and Lagodovskaya (1960), who have missed only C. bashiri and had no description of C. alpina at their disposal.
