The present study is an update on the situation of potential vectors of in Tunisia. Investigations in nine Tunisian regions (Nabeul, Bizerte, Béja, Jendouba, Zaghouan, Kairouan, Ben Arous, Tunis and Manouba) from 2018 to 2021 allowed for the observation of 3758 Aphrophoridae among a total of 9702 Auchenorrhyncha individuals collected by sweep net. Four Aphrophoridae species were identified with as most abundant (62%), followed by (28%), (5%) and (5%). Aphrophoridae individuals were found to be particularly abundant in both forests of Nabeul and Jendouba, secondarily in olive groves and dry grassland. Furthermore, their distribution on weed hosts was followed in these two regions where nymphs and adults are widely distributed. appears to be the most abundant species as determined either by conventional sweep netting for adults or by plant sampling on and for nymphs. Limited numbers of adults of were detected by sweep netting, while nymphs of this species were found on only. was found in high numbers on plants belonging to the Poaceae family in forests, dry grassland and olive groves whereas occurred on herbs under or near olive trees and in dry grasslands.
本研究是对突尼斯潜在病媒情况的最新报道。2018年至2021年期间,在突尼斯的九个地区(纳布勒、比塞大、贝贾、杰尔巴、扎古万、凯鲁万、本·阿鲁斯、突尼斯和马努巴)进行的调查发现,在通过扫网收集的总共9702只头喙亚目昆虫个体中,有3758只沫蝉科昆虫。已鉴定出四种沫蝉科昆虫,其中[具体物种1]最为丰富(62%),其次是[具体物种2](28%)、[具体物种3](5%)和[具体物种4](5%)。发现沫蝉科昆虫在纳布勒和杰尔巴的森林中特别丰富,其次是在橄榄园和干草原。此外,在这两个地区追踪了它们在杂草寄主上的分布情况,若虫和成虫分布广泛。无论是通过传统扫网法捕捉成虫,还是通过在[具体植物1]和[具体植物2]上采集样本获取若虫,[具体物种1]似乎都是最丰富的物种。通过扫网法检测到的[具体物种3]成虫数量有限,而仅在[具体植物3]上发现了该物种的若虫。在森林、干草原和橄榄园的禾本科植物上发现大量的[具体物种4],而[具体物种2]出现在橄榄树下或附近的草本植物以及干草原中。
