Material examined. Malta, Verdala Palace, 12–24. vi.2014, 1 ♂ and 5 ♀, Malaise trap, DM; same data but 25.vi.–10. vii.2014, 2 ♂ and 1 ♀; and 1–15. viii.2014, 1 ♀.

Notes. A new record for the Maltese Islands. It is a predominantly foliicole European species associated with conifers but is occasionally found also on broad-leaved trees. It is known also from North America, where it was most likely accidentally introduced ( Lienhard 1998).
