This species was described from Algeria ( Athias-Henriot 1960). This species is mainly known from the south of the Western Palearctic region. It is a very common species reported from many plants, including crops such as peach, avocado orchards and vineyards. It is especially abundant in citrus orchards ( Ragusa 1977; Ferragut et al. 1983; Papaioannou-Souliotis et al. 1994; Ragusa 2006; Kreiter et al. 2010; Sahraoui et al. 2012). Several studies have shown its ability to feed on pollen but also on pests such as T. urticae and P. citri or eriophyid mites ( Ferragut et al. 1992; Santaballa et al. 1994; Abad-Moyano et al. 2009; Pina et al., 2012). This species was already recorded and mentioned in a Slovenian paper ( Bohinc et al. 2018) but it is the first mention of that species in an international paper for Slovenia.
