Psallus (Pityopsallus) pinicola Reuter, 1875

Comments

A central European species that is not known from most of the Balkan Peninsula, the European part of Russia, the Caucasian region, or northern Iran ( Aukema 2023). However, this species was recorded from the Aegean region and the middle and east Black Sea regions of Turkey by Önder (1976) and Yazıcı & Yıldırım (2016c). A re-examination of specimens collected in Eskişehir, Çankırı, and Ankara by Önder (1976) revealed that they belonged to other taxa (see below). The records of this species from Artvin and Erzurum in Turkey, are isolated from the known distribution of this species and need confirmation.
