Genus Spiniphora Malloch, 1909 View in CoL View at ENA

This is a relatively small genus with about 20 species from the Palaearctic, Nearctic and Oriental regions. Only S. signata Schmitz, 1935 was previously recorded in Israel ( Disney & Nussbaum, 1990; Lengyel, 2011a), being now known from both the coastal plain and Judean hills. Another species, S. bergenstammi (Mik, 1864) was erroneously indicated for the Israeli fauna by Disney & Nussbaum (1990), being collected in Sidon, Lebanon. However, quite expectedly this Holarctic species is present in Israel as well.
