Comment: Observations were recorded from 7 localities located within 5 1× 1 km UTM squares, constituting the first records for Ceuta. The species appears to be scarce and localized, associated with open habitats featuring rocky outcrops, as is typical in Morocco ( Tarrier, 2025e). Imagines are present during the summer months, particularly from June to September.
