Ecological interactions

Conservation status

Even though this species has a wide distribution, its elusive nocturnal habits (e.g. Bolívar 1914) reduce its chances to be seen. Therefore, its poorly known biology coupled with habitat loss resulting from conversion to intensive agriculture of scrubland and Mediterranean forest types has led Battiston et al. (2010) to attribute a "Potential risk" status to this species.

Distribution

This sole representative of the family Amorphoscelidae in Europe, this is an Atlanto-Mediterranean species generally distributed through the Iberian Peninsula, southern France and North Africa from Morocco to Tunisia ( Battiston et al. 2010). In Spain, records are scattered although widespread ( Correas 2009) and information on its biological requirements is scarce. Until now, solely known in Portugal from specimens collected in the thirties ( Seabra 1937) and more recently, in 1997 ( Grosso-Silva and Soares-Vieira 2004).
