Eduardo Marabuto leg. Frass and larval exuviae on R. graveolens . This enigmatic species was recently described from England where specimens were first but repeatedly collected in London from 2003 to 2007 ( Agassiz, 2007 ). Later, it has been found in SE England as well ( Agassiz & Kiddie, 2016 ) and in 2019 in the Canary Islands ( Falck & Karsholt, 2019 ). Whilst its origin is not yet precisely known, SE Asia and the Mediterranean have been suggested, because its closest relatives are Asiatic ( Agassiz, 2007 ) and its local host-plant was discovered to be R. chalepensis and R. graveolens ( Plant, 2016 ) , widespread south-European species but also widely kept in gardens for their purportedly deterrent properties against insects and misfortune (evil eye). These records are thus the first for Portugal , the Iberian Peninsula and the European mainland, of a species which now presents itself as provisionally an Atlanto-Mediterranean element. Its origin has been considered as cryptogenic in López-Vaamonde et al . (2010) , i.e., not known. Indeed, it is not yet known whether the current findings in Portugal represent its hitherto undiscovered native range, or the species is a recent colonist. A support for the latter hypothesis may come from the generalised finding of the species in the NW of Portugal and always under an anthropogenic context, exploiting only garden R. graveolens , even though there are other native rues widespread in Portugal . Perhaps rues are only secondary hosts from an original different Rutaceae , like Citrus spp. , as has happened with some butterflies of the genus Papilio Linnaeus, 1758 in the Nearctic, chosing rues over native hosts (e.g., Ferris & Emmel, 1982 ).
