Styphlus oros
(REITTER, 1889)
(Fig. 11) and
S. penicillus
SCHöNHERR, 1826.
S. penicillus
was beaten during the night from the
Reichardia
cf.
picroides
(Asteraceae)
at a beach.
Bayer & al. (2007)
reported on finds of the similar
S. jonicus
(Reitter, 1899)
from an undetermined
Asteraceae
, but also from numerous finds on
Fabaceae
.
With
Styphlus oros
another species of the genus was sifted from leaf litter in
two specimens
in an olive orchard near Kamara (no. 16). The habitat lies within the immediate surroundings of an olive tree, where several
Hieracium
sp. (Asteraceae)
were growing, their possible host plant. Another specimen was sifted from leaf litter under cushion plants on the Oros Kerkis.
