| Abstract |
The predatory species Chrysemosa jeanneli (Navás, 1914) (Neuroptera: Chrysopidae) was identified by the Natural History Museum of London, UK as a new record in Egypt. The lacewing was found associated with the aphid species; Hyalopterus pruni (Geoffroy) infesting apricot trees and Aphis gossypii (Glov.) infesting mango trees at El-Khattara district, Sharkia Governorate, Egypt in years 2010 and 2011. Relative high numbers of the predator were observed mainly in May. The predatory species was recorded before in Africa: Namibia, South Africa, Botswana, Kenya, Tanzania and Swaziland. |
