waxy secretion of Euphyllura phillyreae on twigs of Phillyrea latifolia Examined material 4 males and 3 females, 05.v.2021, ex. Phillyrea latifolia L. , (Oleaceae), Qalaat AlMahalibeh, Latakia, Syria (35°30'34" N; E 36°05'55"; elevation 631m), May 2021, coll. Mahran Zeity. Distribution Euphyllura phillyreae is restricted to the Mediterranean Sea and western of Palaricitic. This species reported from Algeria, Bulgaria, Croatia, France, Georgia, Greece, Iran, Italy, Lebanon, Morocco, Russia, Slovenia, Spain, Spain Balearic Islands, Switzerland, Tunisia, Turkey, Ukraine and Yugoslavia (Ouvrard, 2021). Host plants: Olea L., Olea europaea L., Osmanthus Lour., Osmanthus fragrans Lour., Osmanthus ilicifolius (Hassk.), Phillyrea L., Phillyrea angustifolia L., Phillyrea latifolia L. and Phillyrea media L. (Ouvrard, 2021). Remarks Adult and some immature stages of Anthocoris sp. (Anthocoridae) predotor were associated with this insect during this study. So far, this species was reported to be a pest of olive trees from several neighboring countries like, Greece, Algeria, Turkey, Lebanon and Spain (Lauterer et al., 1986; Burckhardt, 1988; Burckhardt, 1989; Kovanci et al., 2005; ZeidanGeze & Burckhardt, 1998; Hodkinson and Hollis (1981). However several studies have to be conducted to determine whether this species is an inhabitant of olive tree in Syria. Conclusion This study was conducted to identify psyllid species associated with some wild and ornamental plants. This is a new contribution to this group from Syria. Acknowledgment: Author is thankful to Mondal Priyankar for his comments on the early manuscript. Author is grateful to the General Commission for Scientific Agricultural Research, Latakia, Syria for support during this work.
