“…In Central Europe, males of this genus can be easily distinguished based on distinct modifications of their head regions (Roberts 1987) which are presumed to have effects on mating processes by producing secretions (Kunz et al 2012, Meijer 1976, Uhl & Maelfait 2008). Diplocephalus graecus (O. Pickard-Cambridge, 1873) is widespread in the Mediterranean region, occurring in various habitats like grazed meadows, deciduous forests (Ijland et al 2012), xerophyte low grass pasture (Komnenov 2014), limestone grassland (Breitling 2020), river beds (Ijland & Helsdingen 2014, Pantini & Isaia 2008) including anthropogenic ones like olive groves (Picchi 2020, Russell-Smith 2014), citrus groves, hazelnut- and cherry-orchards (Pantini et al 2013), abandoned rural construction sites (Matevski et al 2022) or arable land (Blick et al 2000). A comprehensive overview can also be found in Bosmans (1996).…”
