Abstract
Buprestis (Ancylocheira) dalmatina Mannerheim, 1837, an E-Mediterranean Buprestid species, is here recorded for the first time from southern Italy (forest areas of Matera province, Basilicata Region). The here reported records of B. dalmatina are based on material collected on Pinus halepensis Mill. in re-forested coastal areas; the species is therefore supposed to have been very likely introduced. Some aspects of the ecological relationships of Buprestis dalmatina with the closely related and syntopic Pinus borers B. humeralis, B. novemmaculata and B. haemorrhoidalis haemorrhoidalis in Southern Italy are also briefly discussed.
期刊介绍:
Fragmenta entomologica is devoted to publishing high quality papers dealing with Arthropod biodiversity. It publishes research articles, short scientific notes, reviews articles, comments and editorials. The core scope of the journal includes Taxonomy, Systematics, Molecular phylogeny, Morphology, Paleontology, Biodiversity, Biogeography, Evolutionary biology, Conservation biology, Ecology, Ethology and Applied Entomology, and embraces all terrestrial, freshwater and brackish water Arthropods. Merely faunistic papers might be considered for publication only in the following cases: papers including relevant and significant new data emphasizing the conservation priority of rare, protected or endangered arthropods and their habitats; papers concerning with important newly introduced pest species; papers concerning with very poorly known geographic areas from scarcely investigated countries.
