Trioza apicalis
Foerster
Comments.
In his treatise of carrot pests,
Rivnay (1962)
stated that “in
Israel
...
T. nigricornis
[=
Bactericera trigonica
] is the common species, and not
T. viridula
[=
Trioza apicalis
] as was formerly believed (
Rivnay 1960
).” It is not clear if Rivnay had actually seen specimens of
T. apicalis
from
Israel
. We did not examine any material of this species from
Israel
and do not, therefore, include it in the list of Israeli
Psylloidea
.
