Papp B. and Pantovi ć J. s.n., BP[BP 193735]. REMARKS This species is widely distributed in Europe in areas of Mediterranean influence ( Smith 2004 ), being also present in central Europe ( Hodgetts 2015 ). It was reported previously from Bosnia-Herzegovina , Croatia , Greece , Montenegro and European Turkey among Balkan countries ( Sabovljević et al. 2008 ; Ros et al. 2013 ; Hodgetts 2015 ), where it seems not to be very rare in adequate sites. According to Ros et al. (2013) , in the other Mediterranean territories, it was not recorded only in Andorra , Egypt , Jordan and Syria .
