Cortodera neslihanae Özdikmen, 2016 was described from Anatolia (Çankırı: Orta: Elden village, 40°39'22"N, 32°58'21"E) on the base of two females. Both specimens do not differ from rather variable C. flavimana. The type locality of the new name is situated inside the area of C. f. angorensis Danilevsky, 2015. Typical C.f. angorensis is characterized by totally red antennae and legs, while both females of C. neslihanae have black antennae and partly black femora and tibiae. But a form with dark legs was mentioned in the original description of C. f. angorensis Danilevsky, 2015. So, until better investigation of local populations a new synonym must be accepted:
C. f. angorensis Danilevsky, 2015 = Cortodera neslihanae Özdikmen, 2016.
 
Cortodera orientalis didemae Özdikmen, 2016 was describe on the base of a single male from SE Anatolia (Mardin prov. - without precise locality). The male does not belong to C. orientalis because of shorte and wide body. It looks like C. syriaca Pic, 1901 with bicolored middle and hind legs, while all specimens of C. syriaca from Transcaucasia to Syria known to me have middle and hind legs black. Bicored middle and hind legs are known in C. syriaca nigroapicalis Holzschuh, 1981 from Hakkâri prov. and in specimens from West Iran. So, until better study a new subspecies from Mardin can be accepted:
C. syriaca didemae Özdikmen, 2016.
