It is found in various types of habitats such as Mediterranean shrubs, olive and carob forests and tracheal pine forests. In Cyprus, it was located at 4 locations on the north side of the Pentadaktilos between Akanthos and Flamoudi, and at a location in Pachyammos, Tilliria.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\"><strong>Habitat:<br \/>\n<\/strong>Forested places with Pinus brutia and Cupressus sempervirens and bushes with Cistus spp. and other low shrubs.
