This species is mainly known from the Western Palearctic region and is very common in the Mediterranean basin. It has been reported from many plants and some orchards such as vineyards, apple, almond, pear but essentially on citrus ( Ferragut et al. 1983 ; Papaioannou­ Souliotis et al. 1994; Espinha et al. 1995 ; Kreiter et al. 2000 ; Sahraoui et al. 2012). Some studies have been carried out on the biology of this species ( Meszaros et al. 2007) and some publications reported that it could limit the development of mite pests in citrus orchards. This species was reported from Morocco by McMurtry and Bounfour (1989) on citrus, weeds and Argania spinosa (L.) Skeels and is present in Canary Island. It was first mentioned by Papadoulis and Kapaxidi (2011) from Madeira Island. The report here confirms the occurrence of this species in the island.

World distribution: Algeria, Canary Islands, Cyprus, England, France, Greece, Hungary, Israel, Italy, Jordan, Madeira islands, Moldova, Morocco, Norway, Portugal, Russia, Serbia­ Montenegro, Spain, Tunisia, Ukraine.

Specimens examined: a single specimen (1 ♀) collected during this study. Risco (1040 m aasl, 32°47 ′ 56 ″ N, 17°11 ′ 8 ″ W), 1 ♀ on the Macaronesian endemic Laurus novocanariensis Martinez, Lousa, Pietro, Dias , Costa and Aguiar ( Lauraceae ).

Remarks: the measurements of the adult females collected agree with those provided by Ferragut et al. (2010) for specimens from Spain and by Tixier et al. (2019) for specimens from by the number of specimens measured between brackets).
