Remarks: Both Mayr, 2009 as Acosta Hospitaleche et Gelfo 2016 give the year of description as Panteletev et Nessov, 1987 although Trudy Zoologicheskogo Instituta, Akademiya Nauk SSSR 252: 95-103 has the year 1993 on the cover. I do not know which year is correct.

There is also a full scan of this volume (with entire cover, half-title page and title page, all saying "1993") at http://ashipunov.info/shipunov/school/books/ekol_fauna_ptits_palearktiki_1993_zin_252.djvu
Mayr 2009 and Acosta Hospitaleche & Gelfo 2016 clearly took the name from the present work (i.e., the issue is not with the source itself), which they dated to 1987; in the refs cited in this work, one is from 1988, one from 1990 and two from 1991 : there is no way that it could have been published in 1987.
