Description
Specimens: 4 exx., Turkey: Elaziğ (Hoşköy), 38°40′11′′ N 39°25′14′′ E, 904 m, M. Ataş leg.
General Distribution: Species of Central and Western Palearctic distribution, introduced in USA and Uruguay (Borowski and Węgrzynowicz 2007; Liu et al. 2016; Nardi and Mifsud 2015; Samin et al. 2015).
Distribution in Turkey: Widespread. The data presented here constitute the first record of this species in a vineyard in Elaziğ (Hoşköy).
Larval Host Plants: Polyphagous species on Annonaceae, Fabaceae, Rosaceae, Moraceae, Oleaceae, Punicaceae, Solanaceae, Tamaricaceae, and Vitaceae (Liu et al. 2016).
Notes. The species was obtained from branches of the Ağin white variety (Ağin beyazi), in particular those resulting from pruning of the previous years. In the Mediterranean region, A. bimaculatus develops on dying or dead Vitis spp. (Moleas 1988; Nardi and Mifsud 2015), but it can occasionally attack healthy plants (Moleas 1988).
