Genus Billotia Schmitz, 1944 View in CoL

The genus had long been known from a single Central European species, B. inermis Schmitz, 1944 , until B. papii was described from Tuscany ( Gori, 2000). Whereas the former is known from both males and females, the description of the latter is based on female only. This makes confident attribution of specimens to hand difficult until males are available from the type locality of B. papii , or females of Billotia are procured in Israel.
