Treatment

Its dispersal is restricted to the northern half of the Iberian Peninsula, with an elevational distribution between 500 and 2000 m ( Ornosa & Ortiz-Sánchez 2004).

At present, it has been collected between 914 and 1458 m ( Fig. 7 View FIGURE 7 ). This subspecies is rare and scarce ( Table 2 View TABLE 2 ). New records. Spain: Huesca: Biescas, 10-VIII-2014, 3 males, E. Acosta leg., UMU; Lleida: Artiga de Lin , 15-VIII-2 012, 1 male, P. De la Rúa leg., UMU.
