Type locality. Sudan .

Range. Afrotropical and Palearctic, widespread in Africa penetrating the Palearctic realm through the East Mediterranean from Egypt, Saudi Arabia and the Levant north and eastwards to Iraq, Iran, Pakistan and India, the species is absent from Turkey ( Oldroyd, 1954; Leclercq, 1966a; Burger, 1984; Müller et al., 2012b; El-Hassan et al., 2013; Evenhuis & Pape, 2023).

New records. In the Levant the most northern record is from northern Lebanon, a female caught 10 km east of Tripoli in a Malaise trap in mid-June 2015. The specimen is deposited in the collection of G. Müller (new record for Lebanon). We collected three females feeding on a donkey in Cyprus, 10 km NW from Larnaca, in late May 2019 (new record for Cyprus and Europe) .
