Notes

All specimens were collected on Centaurea solstitialis , flying together with Tetralonia graja and T. julliani . The Italian literature records of A. vinctus are all from northern Italy, more precisely from Piemonte and Trentino Alto Adige/ Südtirol ( Comba 2019 and references therein). Our records appear to be the first from Lazio and central Italy. Images: Suppl. material 2, Figs. S8-S10.
