The species is characterized by small body size and yellow to yellowish red body coloration with distinctly infuscated legs. Additionally, the taxonomic status of all known members of the Cataglyphis livida complex is updated. Cataglyphis lutea Pisarski, 1967, stat. rev. is raised to the species level and Cataglyphis viaticoides (Andr&eacute;, 1881) is proposed as a senior synonym of Cataglyphis livida bulgarica&nbsp; Atanassov,&nbsp; 1982,&nbsp; syn.&nbsp; nov.&nbsp; and&nbsp; Cataglyphis&nbsp; albicans&nbsp; mixtus&nbsp; (Forel,&nbsp; 1895),&nbsp; syn.&nbsp; nov.&nbsp; Finally,&nbsp; a&nbsp; provisional key to members of the livida complex is provided.</p>

Its morphological separation from P. schmitzii Forel, 1895, the second species characterized by dense gaster setosity, is supported by study on their environmental niches. Plagiolepis pallescens Forel, 1889 is redescribed based on type specimens and material collected from various localities spread within Balkans. Its taxonomical status is clarified and a definition of a &lsquo;pallescens group&rsquo; is improved and supplemented. Plagiolepis maura var. taurica Santschi, 1920 and Plagiolepis maura var. ancyrensis Santschi, 1920 are synonymized with Plagiolepis pallescens Forel, 1889.</p>
