Notes
Previous records from the Iberian peninsula are only known from the Biscaya province in Northern Spain (
Carles-Tolra
and
Salona
2004
).
Specimens of
T. saltator
from Mallorca have around 30 setae on the ventral side of Sc vein, which is a case similarly observed in males of
T. pappi
Krzeminska, 2003 from Morocco (
Driauach et al. 2015
). However, in other characters the Mallorcan specimens agree with
T. saltator
, including wing venation not typical for
T. pappi
and the species-specific male gonocoxal bridge and aedeagal complex (Fig. 3 A, B, D).
