C o m m e n t: Previously examined material of this Atlanto-Mediterranean subspecies was mainly sifted from deep layers of leaf litter, with few records also from caves or subterranean traps (ASSING 2006, 2007c, 2009). The above records suggest that it is apparently a regular in caves. Three specimens were collected on the wing in flight intercept traps in May and August/September.
