For same reasons than the previous species, this species belongs to the rhenanus species group.

The biology of this type III species (McMurtry et al. 2013) is almost totally unknown.

This is the first mention of that species for the Slovenian fauna.

World distribution: Belgium, Cyprus, England, Greece, Ireland, Morocco, Netherlands, Norway, Spain, Syria, Tunisia, Turkey.

Specimens examined: A single ♀ during the two years-study. Ankaran (aasl 19 m, lat. 45°34’20”N, long. 13°45’29”E), 1 ♀ on Quercus robur L. ( Fagaceae), 19/VI/2019;

Remarks: The description and measurements of the adult females collected agree with those provided by Faraji et al. (2007) and by Ferragut et al. (2010) for specimens from Spain. This species is very close to T. (A.) cryptus, considered to be a junior synonym by several authors.
