Material examined. Figure 1. Romania: Pădurea Neagră, Plopiș Mt., Bistra brook, hornbeam-beech forest, 441 m a.s.l., 47.1492° N, 022.4441° E, 8 May 2012, Török E. leg., 1 male, DIPT-JS-2016-0009.
Monocentrota matilei was originally described from Bulgaria and Algeria ( Bechev 1989). Papp (2003) reported this species from Hungary, and Chandler (2009) redescribed it based on specimens collected from Sardinia. The species is here reported for the first time from Romania. The species apparently has a fragmented range confined to mountainous areas of southeastern Europe and the Mediterranean area. Immature stages of M. matilei are unknown, but the European species M. lundstromi Edwards, 1925 is probably associated with decaying wood ( Jakovlev et al. 2014).
