The Neartic species Acanalonia conica (Say 1830) has been recently found in Italy. Analysis shows that the species has a good capability to settle outside its natural range. A. conica is a very polyphagous species and the population density in Italy appears larger than the one recorded in North America. We conclude that A. conica should be regarded as a potential pest in Europe.

Abstract
The Neartic species Acanalonia conica (Say 1830) has been recently found in Italy. Analysis shows that the species has a good capability to settle outside its natural range. A. conica is a very polyphagous species and the population density in Italy appears larger than the one recorded in North America. We conclude that A. conica should be regarded as a potential pest in Europe.File in questo prodotto:
