Note — Bryobia sp. is probably a new species near Bryobia attica Hatzinikolis & Emmanouel 1990 in having the same body shape, prodorsal lobes and spatulate dorsal setae but it can be distinguished from the latter by the leg chaetotaxy, empodium I about fourth he length of the true claws and with two pairs of tenent hairs. The peritremes are wider than that of B. attica . Tarsi III and IV associated setae serrate and approximate with solenidion forming duplex, the tactile member much longer and proximal.
The species is dark red in life. No damage to olive plant was observed and its economic impact seems negligible.
Material examined — Four females collected on the variety olive oil Chemlali from Sfax: Ltayfa (34°44’58.23"N, 10°11’39.67"E) June 2011 GoogleMaps .
