Specimens examined: 10.IX.2020, 1 ♂, 1 ♀. Cambeia (40°44’08.0”N 8°37’40.7”W) and Cacia (40°41’44.2”N 8°37’31.4”W), saltmarsh area, on Juncus maritimus .
Comments: Holarctic distribution ( Mathis et al. 2009). Larvae of this species are unknown, adults have been collected in salt meadows, salt marshes, alkaline playas, and along the shores of a pond. Specimens are generally uncommon in collections, but common in partially alkaline or saline habitats ( Mathis et al. 2009). In a saltmarsh in Central Europe, this species was collected from March to November with greatest abundance in September but with an earlier peak in May ( Kubátová-Hiršová 2005). First record for the Iberian Peninsula.
