Comment: Previously mentioned generically for Ceuta by Schuurmans (1976), this species is now confirmed from 5 localities located in 5 1× 1 km UTM squares, suggesting that it is scarce and localised within the study area. Specimens were recorded from July to October, with adults observed nectaring on S. rosmarinus .
