Material examined: EUROPEAN TURKEY: Kırklareli province: Demirköy, Pedina , 80 m, 23.08.2014, 1♂.

Asian Turkey: Kment & Jindra (2006), Önder et al. (2006), Aukema et al. (2013), Mattoq et al., (2014).

European Turkey: This study. New record for the fauna of Turkish Thrace.

General distribution: Afghanistan, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Georgia, Iran, Iraq, Jordan Kirgizia, Tadzhikistan, Turkey (Asian part), Turkmenistan, and Uzbekistan ( Kment & Jindra 2006).

Diagnosis: Colour pale yellowish brown. Antennal segments yellow, bearing pale hairs. Rostrum reaching the middle of metasternum; vesicula, paramere, pygophore and median pronotal carina hemelytra and body ventrally as described by Lis (2002) ( Figs. 2a, b, c, d, e View FIGURE 2 ). Head totally covered by the hood; dorsally with yellowish-white five spines; eyes brown. Total body length 3 mm.

Comments: Lis (2002) decribed this species as S. hoberlandti from Iraq but it was synonymized by Golub (2002) with S. oschanini , taxon previously considered a junior synonym of S. pyri . Kment and Jindra (2005) found this species in Southeast Antolia for the first time. It was recorded in this study, both in Europe and Turkish Thrace for the first time. Stephanitis pyri is distributed in southern Europe and S. oschanini is distributed from Turkey to Afghanistan ( Figs. 3a, b View FIGURE 3 ).
