Material examined.

Morocco: Oriental, 70 km S Oujda, 8.iv.1995, 1♂, leg. Ma. Halada, OÖLM .

Distribution and remarks.

Known from Algeria, Tunisia, Egypt, and Israel (Gusenleitner and Schwarz 2002; Pisanty et al. 2018), so the presence of this species in eastern Morocco is not unexpected. The male is unique within the Aciandrena in that the yellow markings on the clypeus extend on to the lower paraocular areas (Fig. 129), and additionally the tips of the gonostyli are produced into points (Fig. 130).
