Material examined. Middle Atlas: 1♂, Oued Lagziri, 23. V .2022, sweep net, coll. Group Belqat, LMEE PO .

General distribution. This widespread species occurs in the Holarctic region ( Ježek & Yağci, 2005; Kvifte et al., 2016). In North Africa, it is known from Morocco in the High Atlas ( Vaillant, 1955; 1972) and the Rif ( Afzan & Belqat, 2016), and from Algeria ( Satchell, 1955; Vaillant, 1955; 1972) and Tunisia ( Wagner, 1987).

Habitat. We collected specimens by sweep-netting the abundant vegetation, mostly Apium nodiflorum , Calamintha ascendens , Fraxinus angustifolia , and Salix alba , along the banks of the river Lagziri ( Fig. 11). The watercourse, which was shallow and shaded, flowed slowly over a stony substrate with scattered boulders.

Comment. A detailed description of the adult was given by Ježek (1990).
