Distribution. Austria, Bulgaria, Croatia, Czech Republic, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iran, Italy, North Macedonia, Moldova, Romania, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Turkey, Turkmenistan ( Noyes, 2019).
Remarks. New record for Lesvos Island, Greece. In addition, B. rugulosa is known to live in old galls of Andricus kollari (Hartig, 1843) ( Hymenoptera , Cynipidae , Cynipini), as a parasitoid of tiny inquiline lepidopteran species ( Bouček, 1951; Lotfalizadeh et al., 2012). As such, A. insanus is considered a new host gall for B. rugulosa .
