Millieria dolosalis
Specimens of M. dolosalis were recorded during daytime in two different localities of the center-south of Portugal by the junior author, between 2021 and 2024. Both are new county records (Guarda and Lisboa), bringing the total known records of the species in the country to seven (Table 1). Quinta de Leandres (Manteigas, Guarda) lies in a north-east-facing side of the valley of river Zêzere circa 700 m a.s.l., under a Supra-Mediterranean climatic regime where dominant vegetation include Pinus pinaster and Castanaea sativa woodlands. M. dolosalis was observed here on the 21 st May 2021 (Fig. 1a). East of Cabra Figa (Rio de Mouro, Lisboa), under a Thermo-Mediterranean climatic regime, M. dolosalis was observed in late March 2024 (Fig. 1b) in a degraded maquis where Quercus coccifera is the dominant arboreal species, but rich dry-meadows harbor a diverse calciphilous flora.
