Hosts of T. bilabiatus are Acipes atlanticus Attems, 1937 , A. serratus Enghoff, 1983 and A. franzi (Loksa, 1967) . They are all quite small: 6–20 mm long, 0.4–0.9 mm in diameter. The former two species are endemic on the island of Madeira where they are commonly found under bark and in dead wood in the laurel forest ( Enghoff 1983); A. franzi is endemic on the Canary Islands and has been found in forests as well as in more open habitats ( Vicente and Enghoff 1999). The genus Acipes contains a further eight species from Madeira (including Porto Santo) and the Iberian Peninsula ( Enghoff and Reboleira 2013).
