Taxonomy.

H. Aspöck et al. (1991). Eidonomically very similar to Parainocellia braueri (Balkan Peninsula, southeast of Central Europe, Eastern Europe) and to P. bicolor (Apennine Peninsula, southwest of Central Europe), but easily to be identified by characters of the male genitalia.

Biology and ecology.

Larvae corticolous on Pinus , Quercus (and probably many other trees). Typical habitats: light pine forests and mixed pine-oak forests, also on single old trees, e.g. in pastures from sea level to (at least) 1800 m. Development: at least Subilla three (possibly also two) years. Last hibernation stage: full-grown larva. Adults: V-VII.

Records on Mediterranean islands

Continental distribution.

South and east Anatolia.

Biogeography.

Monocentric Anatoloponotmediterranean faunal element with low expansivity.
