* † Chevinia mediterranea Lacourt, 2003

Material.

Crete; 1♀, Drakona, 22.iv.2013, swept from Quercus sp. (either Quercus ilex or Quercus coccifera ).

Chevinia mediterranea was described from localities on the Mediterranean coast of mainland France and Corsica ( Lacourt 2003). Specimens recorded as? Chevinia sp. from Thessaly, mainland Greece, by Standfuss et al. (2010) also belong to this species (comparison with paratypes of Chevinia mediterranea by A. Mol, S. Blank and A. Liston, 2013). The mainland specimens were also collected from Quercus spp. (K. Standfuss, personal communication), so perhaps the larval host is one or more oak species.
