Afranthidium (Mesanthidium) carduele (Morawitz, 1876) View in CoL malacopygum (Gribodo, 1894)

Distribution: Afranthidium carduele is distributed in Spain and North Africa to Greece, Bulgaria, Turkey, the Caucasus, and the Middle East ( Aguib et al. 2010). The subspecies malacopygum is found in Iberia, Morocco, and Algeria, and carduele s.s. is found in the eastern part of the range.

New data: PORTUGAL: Trás-os-Montes, Bragança, França , 25.vii.2018, 1♀, det. G. Le Goff, leg. R. Andrade .

Notes: The status of subspecies malacopygum may need to be revised in the future given the non-overlapping West Mediterranean distribution compared to the easterly distribution of the subspecies carduele s.s.
