The paper provides new information about the distribution of Metopides nivosus (White, 1858) in Pakistan. The results of the study show that this species is more widely distributed in Pakistan than previously thought. New faunistic data presents material near the border of Afghanistan. It can be assumed that the distribution of the species is wider in Asia and it potentially can be found in Afghanistan.
