Records in this study. Jemot ( Oum El Bouaghi), Dam of Laghouat (Houita).
Previous records in the Algerian Sahara. Laghouat (Blanchard 1891), Ghardaïa ( Gauthier 1934a), Tasilli N’Ajjer ( Thiéry & Rogers 2022).
Previous records in the Hauts Plateaux and coastal area. The phylogeography of the T. cancriformis species complex has been the focus of a detailed study using molecular analyses (Korn et al. 2006, 2010) that reinstated T. simplex to full status. The species has been recorded at Biskra ( Simon 1885), Mécheria, between Laghouat and Djelfa ( Gauthier 1928b), Dayet El Itima ( Gauthier 1934a), Boucif, Jemot ( Samraoui et al. 2006), Timerganine, Jemot ( Ouahioune Rais 2019), Jemot ( Beladjal & Amarouayache 2023).
Comments. T. simplex is common in the steppe zone of the Hauts Plateaux as well as in the arid northern Sahara. As observed in Tunisia ( Marrone et al. 2016), the species is not present in the humid coastal regions.
