Material.

Crete; 1♂, roadside between Kournas and Georgiopolis, 26.iii.2013. 1♀, Livadia, 29.iii.2013. Both specimens swept from freshly flushed Quercus pubescens : Quercus spp. are the known hosts ( Liston 2012).

The depressed medial areas of the apical abdominal terga of the male are partly pale, unlike the completely dark terga of males so far examined from mainland Greece (see Liston 2012).
