Remarks.

For nearly 40 years since its description ( Nosek 1969), only two specimens (holotype and paratype) from Veneto (NE Italy) belonging to this species were known. In 2007 two of us (Galli and Torti) published a short note about a third specimen from Liguria (NW). Three other specimens were most recently found in samples from Piedmont (NW) and Sardinia.
