Chorotype. Europeo-Mediterranean.
The only previous Algerian records of this species were from Aurés in Chélia Forest, in Tiaret and in the Ouarsenis massif in Oran ( Berthélemy 1964). In the Djurdjura massif, the species was captured in 12 sampling sites at altitudes between 290 m and 1200 m. The present study’s collection constitutes the first record of this species in Kabylia.
The species is common in Morocco. It is found in the main areas of the country at altitudes between 20 m and 3300 m in the High Atlas ( Bennas & Sáinz-Cantero 2007; Benamar 2015). However, in Tunisia, L. intermedius is present in lowland streams ( Touaylia et al. 2010, 2011). In Austria, the species is usually found in the hyporhithral and epipotamal zone ( Jäch et al. 2005).
