Type locality. Rhodes Greece and the opposite coast of Turkey.
Range. Palearctic, North Mediterranean. Known from Portugal, Spain, Corsica, Bulgaria, Rhodes Island and Turkey ( Leclercq, 1960; Chvála, 2013).
New records. We recorded two males of this species for the first time on the Greek mainland in Vouno Kastorias Park near Koromilia, 890 m a.s.l., in early July 1992 feeding on nectar in a flowering meadow, collected by sweep net by G. Müller & A. Kotitsa (new record for Greek mainland). One male was collected on flowering Umbilifera and another male near an irrigation water puddle on the ground on Rhodes Island, in a park of the outskirts of Rhodes city, on 29 July 1991. The species was observed by us in Cyprus in the Troodos Mts., NW of Mylikouri, 900 m a.s.l., in early August 1995 (new record for Cyprus).
