AbstractBackgroundGlobalisation and international trade, in particular, are the major drivers of introduction and the spread of non-native species. To date, more than 30 species of non-nativeHemipteraAuchenorrhynchahave been accidentally introduced into Europe. Some species are invasive with important repercussions primarily for agricultural activities, while almost no information exists on their impacts within natural ecosystems. Therefore, early detection of non-native species and their subsequent monitoring are extremely important actions to undertake.New informationThe North AmericanOsbornellusauronitens(Provancher, 1889), firstly recorded for the Palearctic and Europe in Switzerland in 2016, is recorded in Italy for the first time on the basis of 77 specimens collected between August 2015 and October 2022.
