Lignyodes bischoffi Blatchley, 1916 (Curculionidae)-a new species of invasive weevils for Russia.

摘要

A new invasive species of American origin was registered in the south of European Russia. Beetles were collected in Rostov oblast (Neklinovskii district; Merzhanovo; July 20, 2007; D.G. Kasatkin) and Stavropol krai (Pyatigorsk; July 31, 2012; V.I. Lantsov). This species migrated from Europe, where it had penetrated in the middle of the 20th century with transfer of seeds of American ash.Notes Translated from Rossiiskii Zhurnal Biologicheskikh Invasii (2013) No. 3, 2-6 (Ru).
