Notes
In agricultural areas, it is often found on arable land, pastureland and alfalfa. It is usually absent in fields with abundant weed cover ( Holland and Luff 2000). It likes open areas and is an autumn breeder ( Thiele 1977). In this study, it was found in the maize field in the homogeneous area (n = 1), the olive grove in the homogeneous area (n = 3) and the wheat field in the homogeneous area (n = 1).
