Taxonomy.

Pantaleoni et al. (2005). S. principiae (Fig. 4h View Figure 4 ) can clearly be differentiated from all other species of the genus by characters of the male and female genitalia. Moreover, the species can be readily recognized in the field by the dark long pterostigma. There is no particularly close relationship to any other Subilla species.

Biology and ecology.

So far larvae were found exclusively under the bark of Quercus pubescens . Only known from the type locality - a light oak forest - at 1050 m. Adults: V-VI.

Records on Mediterranean islands

(Fig. 10b View Figure 10 ). Sardinia. The species is endemic to Sardinia, possibly it occurs also in Corsica. Syntopic Raphidioptera : Fibla maclachlani .
