Confirmation of the presence of Strophingia proxima Hodkinson, 1981, in metropolitan France (Hemiptera, Liviidae). The presence of the psyllid Strophingia proxima Hodkinson, 1981, is confirmed in Metropolitan France by recent collections in the Pays de la Loire and Centre-Val de Loire regions. We also report older collections from the Nouvelle-Aqui...
Strigamia maritima (Leach, 1817) (Chilopoda, Geophilomorpha, Linotaeniidae) and Thalassisobates littoralis (Silvestri, 1903) (Diplopoda, Julida, Nemasomatidae), two species of myriapods discovered on the rocky coast of Portugal. Strigamia maritima (Leach, 1817) and Thalassisobates littoralis (Silvestri, 1903) were discovered in 2018 on a rocky fore...
Eurydema herbacea is a phytophagous pentatomid with a distribution limited to the southern English Channel and the north-eastern Atlantic Ocean coasts. The species is known to be monophagous on Cakile maritima Scop. (Brassicaceae). This strict monophagy is being questioned on the basis of recent observations in the Pays de la Loire region (France),...
The first population in Portugal of the alien lace bug Stephanitis (Stephanitis) lauri Rietschel, 2014 (Hemiptera: Tingidae) has been detected. This is also the first observation on the Atlantic coast, far from its Mediterranean main area of distribution. This gives us the opportunity to present an overview of its known current distribution. The ha...
La faune des Chilopodes de France métropolitaine comporte actuellement 154 taxons terminaux : 151 espèces et trois sous-espèces, dont la liste commentée est fournie dans le présent article. Stenotaenia sorrentina (Attems, 1903) est confirmée en France (Corse). Les spécimens autrefois cités comme Lithobius nodulipes Latzel, 1880 en Corse se rapporte...
Deux nouvelles espèces d'orthoptères pour le département de la Loire-Atlantique, Tetrix tenuicornis (Sahlberg, 1891) (Tetrigidae) et Rhacocleis annulata Fieber, 1853 (Tettigoniidae), ont été découvertes en 2019. Les conditions d'observations sont décrites et des éléments succincts d'écologie et de répartition sont apportés.

A list of 160 species of Heteroptera observed on the island of Belle-Île-en-Mer (Morbihan department) is presented. Two species of Miridae: Heterocordylus genistae and Hallodapus montandoni are mentioned for the first time in the Massif armoricain. Lygaeus simulans (Lygaeidae), Strobilotoma typhaecornis (Coreidae) and Sciocoris microphthalmus (Pent...
Alien plants, some of which are highly invasive, are increasingly found in natural aquatic habitats. Dragonflies (Insecta: Odonata) are closely related to these habitats and their associated vegetation, and therefore frequently face these exotic species. Our study reviews some observations made in metropolitan France together with literature refere...
Four arthropods species have been discovered during research on rocky tidal flats in the Basque Country (department of Pyrénées-Atlantiques, France). Three species are new for the department: Anisolabis maritima (Bonelli, 1832) (Insecta: Dermaptera: Anisolabididae), Armadilloniscus candidus Budde-Lund, 1885 (Malacostraca: Isopoda: Detonidae) and St...
This note reports the discovery of Euophryum rufum (Broun, 1880) in France. Some chorologicaland biological elements are specified.
L’Espace naturel sensible (ENS) de Sables-d’Or se situe au niveau d’un massif dunaire relictuel, profondément transformé par le tourisme balnéaire du début du siècle dernier. Situé sur la côte de Penthièvre (Côtes-d’Armor), il est composé d’une mosaïque d’habitats dunaires abritant une faune et une flore remarquables. La première station costarmori...
La désignation des Zones Naturelles d’Intérêt Ecologique Faunistique et Floristique (ZNIEFF) s’appuie sur des habitats et espèces dits déterminants. En 1999 est parue la première liste des espèces de faune déterminantes des ZNIEFF continentales en Pays de la Loire. Cette liste n’intègre que très peu d’espèces de la zone de balancement des marées, q...
