Due to their features they are applied as integrated biological weapons. This paper aims to increase the entomophauna knowledge of the country. It presents the species belonging to this family in the different habitats of Lushnja region, Albania. The biological material is collected during of period 2012-2013. The collection of biological samples was achieved through the use of entomological nets of 80 cm diameter, and Pitt’s traps. The fine biological materials were placed in plastic flacons 150-200 ml. They were preserved to the scientific laboratory in bottles of ethanol solution 95%, acetic acid, and distilled water. The biological samples were analyzed and determined by Stereomicroscope ZEISS. This study analyzes 98 individuals, and it has been found 17 genus and 25 species. The genera Lygus is the most represented with 3 species and a frequency of 12%. Habitats of Divjaka station are represented by more species compared to other stations, with 15 species and a frequency of 50%. Based on the “Jaccard index”, Divjaka and Çerma stations present a higher similarity coefficient, with 50.02%. The Zoogeographic regions of Palearctic, is representing by a higher number of species, with 11 species and frequency 44%. Compared to the elevated number of species for that family, it has been found that thier number is limited in the area of the study. Keywords: Hemiptera, Miridae, ecosystems, dominance, habitats 1.

    Acta entomologica serbica, 2002, 7 (1/2): 17-27 UDC 595.754 (497.1) HETEROPTERAON CUPRESSUS SEMPERVIRENS (LINNAEUS) IN MONTENEGRO (STATE COMMUNITY OF SERBIA AND MONTENEGRO) LJ. PROTIĆ1 AND D. ROGANOVIĆ2 1Natural History Museum, P.O. Box 401, SCG-11000 Beograd E-mail: [email protected] 2National Institute for the Conservation of Nature, E-mail: [email protected] Thisis the first contribution to acknowledgment of Hetereoptera fauna on Cupressus sem- pervirens in Montenegro. Researches were performed on 45 localities. 21 species of Heterop- tera were established. It has identified eight species new for fauna of Montenegro: Oriusma- jusculus Reuter, Monosteira unicostata (Mulsant & Rey), Deraeocorisrutilus (Herrich- Schaeffer), Phytocoris parvulus Reuter, Orsillus depressus (Mulsant & Rey), Stictopleurus punctatonervosus (Goeze), Holcogaster exilis Horváth, Nezara viridula var. torquata (Fabric- ius). KEYWORDS: Heteroptera, Cupressus sempervirens, Montenegro, Serbia INTRODUCTION Twovarieties of common cypress, Cupressus sempervirens (Linnaeus) are spread in Mediterranean and sub-Mediterranean part of Montenegro. The most fre- quent are: C. sempervirens. var. pyramidalis Nyman and C. sempervirens var. hor- izontalis Miller. It is autochthonous in Dalmatia. It was introduced in Montenegro, and often grown in the coastal regions. It is bred by seed in the coastal region and it does not form larger forest stands but mostly grows in larger or smaller groups. Although it is Mediterranean, species it can endure very low temperatures even up to – 200 C (VIDAKOVIĆ, 1982). In south part of Montenegro, cypress often can be found in pine cultures, tree-lined paths, than some decorative trees can be found in Acta ent. serb., 2002, 7 (1/2): 17-27 18 LJ.

Costa, 1862) (Hemiptera: Heteroptera: Miridae) as an Invasive Alien Species (IAS) in the Anatolian Peninsula (Turkey) Suat KIYAK Gazi Universtiy, Faculty of Sciences, Department of Biology, 06500 Teknikokullar, Ankara, TURKEY E-mail: [email protected] ORCID iD: 0000-0001-8167-8283 ABSTRACT:In this study the first record of the Deraeocoris flavilinea (A. Costa, 1862) (Miridae: Deraeocorinae) in the Anatolian peninsula (Central Anatolia, Turkey) is given. With this new record, the distribution area has expanded to the East. The records of Turkey demonstrate definitively that it is an alien species for a great part of Europe and the Near East.
