1. The only record of this species is by Rondani (1870: 51). This and C. producta are very similar. A misidentification is considered likely in the absence of compelling evidence that it is present on Malta.

2. The identity of several species of Myopites from the Mediterranean is problematic and a revision is in progress. Dr Valery Korneyev (Kiev, Ukraine) is gratefully acknowledged for sharing his unpublished opinion on a number of synonyms. See also El Harym et al. (2020).

3. Recorded based on larvae, which frequently infest imported cherries, but the species never became established in Malta ( Borg 1939).
