Bactericera acutipennis (Zetterstedt, 1828)

Notes

Bactericera acutipennis was recorded from Bulgaria (Rila Mountains) by Joakimov (1909) (as Trioza acutipennis ). According to Klimaszewski (1965), this record probably refers to Bactericera femoralis , for which the name Trioza acutipennis auct. nec Zetterstedt was erroneously and quite frequently used in literature ( Ossiannilsson 1992, Burckhardt and Lauterer 1997 b). We agree with Klimaszewski's opinion. The presence of B. acutipennis in Bulgaria cannot be excluded, as its host plant, Comarum palustre L., occurs in the country, but further confirmation of B. acutipennis in Bulgaria is needed.
