Öz

Leptoglossus occidentalis (Heidemann, 1910) (Heteroptera: Coreidae) Kuzey Amerika orijinli istilacı yabancı bir böcek türüdür. Avrupa’da ilk defa 1999 yılında İtalya’da görülmüştür. Daha sonra hızla doğu ve batı Avrupa’ya yayılmıştır. Türkiye’de 2009 yılında Sarıyer-İstanbul’da tespit edilmiştir. İğne yapraklı ağaçları tercih eden bir zararlıdır. Bu çalışmada Leptoglossus occidentalis’in morfolojisi, yayılışı ve konukçu bitkileri ile ekonomik önemi anlatılmıştır

LEPTOGLOSSUS OCCIDENTALIS (HEIDEMANN, 1910) IS AN INVASIVE INSECT SPECIES

Öz

The western conifer seed bug, Leptoglossus occidentalis (Heidemann, 1910) (Heteroptera: Coreidae), is an invasive alien species of North American origin. In Europe, it was first collected in Italy in 1999. From there, it quickly expanded its range to western and eastern Europe. Leptoglossus occidentalis was recorded for the first time in Sariyer-Istanbul, Turkey in 2009. Leptoglossus occidentalis is specialised to conifers. In this study gives Leptoglossus occidentalis morphology, distribution and host plants, economic importance.
