Material examined. Rif: 2♀♀, Oued Adouz, 3.VI.2022 - 9.VI.2022, reared, coll. Saidoun, UAE-FST.
General distribution. At present this genus is known from five species: four Palaearctic species with I. hajibadi Ježek, 1987 , whose distribution extends to the Saharan-Arabian region ( Ježek & van Harten, 2009); and one Afrotropical specie s, I. kenyensis Ježek & Oboňa, 2019 ( Ježek & Oboňa, 2019).
Habitat. We reared the specimens at laboratory temperature. Adults emerged six days after the substrate was transported to the laboratory from the vicinity of the river Adouz, bordering a cultivated field.
Comment. We should state that the species remains as yet unnamed due to the fact that only females were collected and the specimens are not similar to any known species.
