Monoxia obesula Blake

MALLORCA—Palma: Es Carnatge, 10.2015, 15 exx. on bushes of Atriplex halimus L. ( Chenopodiaceae ). This is an invading species of North American origin which had been previously quoted from Sardinia ( Clark et al. 2014) and Malta very recently ( Mifsud 2016).

Our citation is the third Palaearctic record of this species. The event has probably occurred by trade of ornamental plants.
