Dominant in meadows, corn fields and vineyards in NE Italy ( Paoletti et al. 1988). In Bulgaria in mixed forests, in meadows, under stone debris in quarry, in city park, 224–900 m (Vagalinski & Stoev 2007). The British record is from the Eden Park Project in Cornwall, which has created some warmer foreign environments in very large heated greenhouses. We leave it in as an introduction as it has been found outside.
