 Thank you Igor. I agree with you. Two known species of Ortochile are west mediterranean. The unique species of the genus exists in east mediterranean region. The females prefer yellow flowers of Asteraceae for feeding.

I have just received the very sad news that Peter Chandler has died after a fall at home yesterday. I have no other details at the moment. We shall miss him terribly.
