Scale: 0.1 mm. REMARKS. This species was originally described from South Africa . Later it has been found in some localities of Africa and Madagascar , as well as in Australia , the Hawaiian Islands, the Juan Fernández Islands, and the St. Paul Island (Enghoff et al ., 2013; Bonato et al ., 2016). In Europe, this species was found in greenhouses in Great Britain (Barber, 1992) and the Czech Republic (Dányi & Tuf, 2016), and also in garden flowerpots in France (Iorio, 2016), as well as in outdoor habitats in Denmark and Germany (Enghoff et al ., 2013; Decker et al ., 2017). Females examined are characterized as follows: body length about 10 mm , antennae with 28–29 articles, and 12th tibia with a distal spinose projection ( Fig. 1 ). Here L . africanus is recorded from Russia for the first time.
