I think it is the same.
Arabid is just a desert adaptation of a med phenotype.
Lebanese and Western Syrians live in a Mediterranean climate and not an arid one, so they are Med looking, while being genetically close to their desert neighbors.
IMO Phenotype <> Genotype.

Is Iranid also a desert adapted type?
