Abstract

The invasive weevil Aulacobaris cuprirostris (Fabricius, 1787) was detected for the first time in Russia, in the Adler district of the city of Sochi. The native range of this species is in North Africa, the Mediterranean region, Western Europe, Southern Europe, and the southern part of Central Europe. We found three specimens of this species more than 1100 km apart from its previously known range on a lawn where the seedlings of shrubs were planted several years ago. The weevils could have been unintentionally introduced with these imported seedlings. Aulacobaris cuprirostris feeds on different species of Brassicaceae and is a pest of cabbage in Western Europe. Therefore, it could potentially become a pest in Krasnodar Territory.

俄罗斯潜在白菜害虫Aulacobaris cuprirostris（鞘翅目，Curculionidae）的首次记录

摘要

在俄罗斯索契市的阿德勒地区首次发现了入侵的象鼻虫Aulacobaris cuprirostris（Fabricius，1787年）。该物种的本地分布在北非，地中海地区，西欧，南欧和中欧的南部。我们在几年前在草坪上种植灌木幼苗的草坪上发现了三个距该物种1100多公里远的物种标本。这些进口的幼苗可能无意中引入了象鼻虫。Auolaobaris cuprirostris取食十字花科的不同物种，是西欧的一种卷心菜害虫。因此，它有可能成为克拉斯诺达尔地区的害虫。
