Taxonomy.
H. Aspöck et al. (1991). Ph. (M.) major (Fig. 3e, f View Figure 3 ) is the sister taxon of all other species of the major complex (i.e. all species of the subgenus except Ph. (M.) klimeschi (H. Aspöck & U. Aspöck) and can easily be distinguished in both sexes by characters of the genital segments.
Biology and ecology.
Larvae (Fig. 3g View Figure 3 ) live under bark of a great variety of deciduous trees, but may sometimes (particularly in the southeast of Europe) be found on conifers. Development two, Subilla three or more years. Last hibernating stage: full-grown larva. Adults: (IV)V-VI(VII). Ph. (M.) major occurs in a great variety of habitats with trees in altitudes from 0 to ca. 1000 m.
Records on Mediterranean islands
(Fig. 9a View Figure 9 ). Levkas, Kefalonia. Probably the species can also be found on other Ionian islands. Syntopic species on Levkas: Parvoraphidia microstigma , Ornatoraphidia flavilabris , Subilla artemis , Dichrostigma flavipes .
Continental distribution.
Balkan Peninsula, Central Europe (including eastern France and northern Germany), Eastern Europe.
Biogeography.
Ph. (M.) major is a monocentric Balkanopontomediterranean faunal element with considerable expansivity. Ph. major is the only monocentric Balkanopontomediterranean snakefly which has reached the northern coast of Germany.
