Abstract: Nominative subspecies is characterized by many rather pale specimens with more or less considerable reduction of elytral design up to total disappearance of transverse elytral bands; it is distributed along steppe zone of Ukraine, Russia and Kazakhstan.
Echinocerus floralis centaureus ssp. n. is described from Greece (Stomion, Mt. Ossa). E. f. aulicus (Laicharting, 1784), stat. rest. (type locality - Tyrol) is accepted for the populations from West Europe (without Greece). E. f. armeniacus (Reitter, 1890), stat. rest. (type locality - Armenia) is accepted for the populations from Transcaucasia and Near East. E. f. pilifer (Reitter, 1890), stat. rest. (type locality - Amasya, Turkey) is accepted for Central Anatolia. E. f. armeniacus (Reitter, 1890), stat. rest. = Neoplagionotus anatolicus Vartanis, 2019, syn. nov.
Introduction
Echinocerus floralis (Pallas, 1773) was described as Cerambyx from the steppe area between Ural River and Irtysh River (“frequens in australioribus ad Iaikum et Irtin”). Many specimens of the species from that area are available at my disposal. They represent a very peculiar pale form (sometimes without transverse elytral stripes at all), which is not known in West Europe. So, the external appearance of the nominative populations strongly differs from well know European specimens, which must be accepted as another subspecies.
All taxa described in the article are so different on genital level that most probably represent different species. New investigations on south materials are necessary for adequate understanding of the problem.
Materials and methods
Material was collected manually. Specimens used in morphological studies were killed by ethyl acetate. All photographs were taken with Canon PowerShot G10 digital camera equipped with Cannon Zoom lens 5X IS 6.1-30.5 mm 1:2.8-4.5 and microscope AmScope SM745NTP. The illustrations were edited with Adobe Photoshop 7.0 and Helicon Focus 3.20.

The taxon is characterized by many rather different forms of elytral design; transverse black elytral stripes can be wide or narrow, or strongly reduced and totally absent, though complete elytral design is known in all population. Normal European form has four wide black elytral stripes.
The reduction of elytral design goes in two directions. One line of forms demonstrates gradual discoloration up to completely white or yellowish elytra without stripes. Several forms have complete set of black transverse stripes, but more or less lightened to nearly indistinct. Another line demonstrates partly reduction of black stripes, which begins from the posterior elytral half. Several specimens have anterior black stripe only or anterior and middle stripes, when posterior black stripe is totally absent. Very rare just contrary only posterior black elytral stripe is distinct. Sometimes elytra without transverse black stripes have black suture.
Pronotum can be totally covered with dense yellow or yellowish pubescence, often with more or less wide central dark area.
Scutellum of the nominative subspecies is always yellow; pronotum is usually with paler pubescence than in West European forms, sometime totally pale, yellow or greyish. Legs are sometimes more or less darkened.
Apex of penis is less attenuated than in any other subspecies, and less widened posteriorly; parameres very narrow, strongly elongated, parallelsided, not widened apically.
Body length in males: 6.5-13.1 mm, width: 1.9-3.6 mm; body length in females: 8.2-14.2 mm, width: 2.1-4.2 mm.
