Digitized Treatments for Two Exotic Psyllid Species in Basel and Alsace

Digitized treatments from the journal article 'Agonoscena succincta (Heeger, 1856) und Euphyllura olivina (Costa, 1839), zwei exotische Blattfloh-Arten in Basel und im Elsass (Hemiptera, Psylloidea)' by Daniel Burckhardt and Dalva L. De Queiroz, published in Entomo Helvetica in 2020. The dataset documents the first reported occurrences of Agonoscena succincta in Switzerland and France and recent introductions of Euphyllura olivina in Central Europe.

Use Cases

• Researching population dynamics of temporary insect populations on potted plants as described.
• Mapping the Mediterranean origin and Central European introduction of psyllid species.

Strengths

• Data is derived from a peer-reviewed journal article published in Entomo Helvetica in 2020.
• Documents first reported occurrences of Agonoscena succincta in specific Swiss and French regions.
• Provides digitized access to taxonomic treatments from a specific source article.

Limitations
