M a t e r i a l e x a m i n e d. Rif: Bakrim (sweeping), 28.04.2019, 1 Ơ, 1 ♀ (El Harym); reared from Carthamus lanatus, 20.05.2019, 6 Ơ, 3 ♀ (El Harym); Aforidane (sweeping), 26.07.2020, 1 Ơ, 1 ♀; Aïn Siyed (sweeping), 26.07.2020, 1 ♀ (El Harym).

Host plants. Carthamus glaucus M.Bieb., C. lanatus L., C. syriacus (Boiss.) Čelak., C. tenuis (Boiss. & Blanche) Bornmand, C. tinctorius (Boiss) (Kugler & Freidberg 1975; Knio et al. 2002). Record of Onopordum acanthium L. (Kütük & Varol, 2006) obviously is a mistake. In this study, it was reared from Carthamus lanatus L. (fig. 13).
