Remarks
A species that typically inhabits low-growing vegetation in saltmarsh or brackish water habitats. Described from Greece and later recorded from Turkey ( Ebejer & Barták 2019) and from Cyprus with photographs of the adult ( Ebejer 2021a). The name ‘ brevivittatum ’ was chosen for the type series where the specimens had short scutal vittae. However, this pattern is not consistent and many specimens seen subsequently have an almost uniformly grey scutum. For similar species see under A. approximatum above.
Distribution
Cyprus, Greece, Turkey ( Ebejer 1995; Ebejer & Bartak 2019; Ebejer 2021a).
