TWO DIFFERENT COLOUR MORPHS OF STIRETRUS DECEMGUTTATUS (LEPELETIER & SERVILLE, 1828) (HEMIPTERA: HETEROPTERA: PENTATOMIDAE: ASOPINAE) FEEDING AND MATING AT THE SAME TIME
On 02.12.2017, Oscar C. B. Neto was able to make an interesting observation in his backyard in Benedito Novo, Santa Catarina, Brazil: Two different colour morphs of Stiretrus decemguttatus could be photographed while they were mating and feeding at the same time (Fig. 1). One specimen was feeding on a larva, while the other one was feeding on an Asopine, probably another colour morph of S. decemguttatus or a specimen of S. erythrocephalus. Both species have similar blue colour patterns which differ in tibial expansions and median abdominal spine (Thomas, 1992), characters which are not visible in Figure 1

On the recent Northern European dispersion of Zelus renardii Kolenati (Hemiptera: Heteroptera: Reduviidae) via human activity
Recently, single specimens of the Nearctic bug species Zelus renardii Kolenati, 1856 were found in Denmark, Germany and the United Kingdom. Very likely, these specimens were introduced via human activity, especially the transport of fruits from the Mediterranean Region.
ZUSAMMENFASSUNG

First records of the invasive species Leptoglossus occidentalis Heidemann (Hemiptera: Coreidae) on different coniferous species including the cedars of Lebanon
The western conifer seed bug, Leptoglossus occidentalis, is an alien invasive species of North
American origin. Leptoglossus occidentalis was recorded for the first time in Arsoun-Metn, Lebanon
in 2015. Adults and nymphs of L. occidentalis were collected by the authors from various locations in
Lebanon and observed on two species of pine, Pinus pinea and Pinus brutia, on Juniperus excelsa and
even on Cedrus libani. This could indicate its successful integration in the country and its presence on
many coniferous tree species. Studies to investigate the behaviour and the economic impact of this
alien insect species in Lebanon are recommended
