It is found in sunny and dry places in the Mediterranean, especially in North Africa, from Morocco to Tunisia, and on the Iberian island in both Spain and Portugal. And prefer open grasslands in forests covered with light trees. It can also be found in the heights of the Sierra Nevada at an altitude of 3.000 meters.
