Acizzia convector Burckhardt & Taylor, sp. nov., a psyllid originating from Australia, is described from material from Australia (NT), South and Southeast Asia (Brunei, Cambodia, India, Laos, Malaysia [Sabah], Singapore and Thailand) and North America (USA [Florida from six counties]). The new species is diagnosed and illustrated, and a key is provided to identify the adults of Acizzia species adventive in the New World. The new species develops on Acacia auriculiformis and A. mangium (Fabaceae), two mimosoids planted and widely naturalised throughout the tropics. While the presence of A. convector sp. nov. in Florida is probably recent (earliest record from October 2014), it occurs in Southeast Asia at least since the 1980s. The wide distribution of the host plants in tropical Africa and South America would allow the psyllids also to occur there.
由澳大利亚起源的新种蚜小蜂 Acizzia convector Burckhardt & Taylor,产自澳大利亚(北领地)、南亚和东南亚(文莱、柬埔寨、印度、老挝、马来西亚[沙巴州]、新加坡和泰国)和北美洲(美国[佛罗里达州的六个县])。该新种被描述并图示,同时提供了一个鉴定在新世界入侵的 Acizzia 种成虫的关键。该新种在金合欢属(含羞草科)的金合欢和南洋楹上发育,这两种含羞草类植物在热带地区被广泛种植和归化。虽然佛罗里达州的 A. convector sp. nov. 的存在可能是最近的(最早的记录是 2014 年 10 月),但它在东南亚至少自 20 世纪 80 年代以来就已经存在。寄主植物在热带非洲和南美洲的广泛分布将允许这些蚜小蜂也在那里出现。
