Distribution. Holo-Mediterranean species, mainly distributed in northern Morocco (L’Mohdi 2016). In the Moulouya River basin, this species is known from one locality in Oued Za (Chavanon et al. 2004). In addition to the watershed of Oued Za, we report it for the first time in the south of the study area, at Figuig, around Oujda’s region and the Oriental Rif (Fig. 8).
