Abstract

Vrsta Penthaleus major (Dugès,1837) važan je ekonomski štetnik na poljoprivrednim
kulturama. Rasprostranjena je u Australiji, Africi, Sjevernoj Americi, Srednjoj Americi,
Južnoj Americi i većim dijelom Europe. Pojavljuje se na pšenici, ječmu, zobi, grašku, leći,
lucerni, na pašnjacima i rijetko na uljanoj repici. Oštećuje epidermu listova zbog čega biljke
imaju srebrolik izgled.Na pojavu toga štetnika u Republici Hrvatskoj, na lokalitetu Kakma, u
Zadarskoj županiji, posumnjalo se u prosincu 2021. Radi se o do sada nepoznatojvrsti na
prostoru Republike Hrvatske te jecilj ovoga radaprovesti identifikaciju vrste i prikazati njene
osnovne značajke: morfologiju, razvojni ciklus, štetnost kao i mjere suzbijanja. Identifikacija
vrste provedena je temeljem morfoloških karakteristika prema Hoy (2011.) te molekularnom
dijagnostikom prema Kontschán i sur. (2018.). Nakon umnažanja sljedova molekularnih
biljega 18S rRNA, cox 1 i ITS2 metodom lančane reakcije polimeraze, uzorci su poslani na
sekvenciranje te je bioinformatičkom analizom potvrđeno da se radi o vrsti Penthaleus major.
Morfologija, razvojni ciklus, štetnost kao i mjere suzbijanja prikazani su temeljem pregleda
recentne znanstvene i stručne literature.

Abstract (english)

The species Penthaleus major (Dugès, 1837) is an important economic pest in agricultural
crops. It is widespread in Australia, Africa, North America, Central America, South America
and most of Europe. It appears on wheat, barley, oats, peas, lentils, alfalfa, on pastures and
rarely on rapeseed. It damages the epidermis of the leaves, as a result of which the plants have
a silver appearance. The appearance of this pest in the Republic of Croatia, at the locality
Kakma, in Zadar County, was suspected in December 2021. As it is an unknown species in
the Republic of Croatia until recent, time the aim of this paper is to identify the species and to
show its basic features: morphology, developmental cycle, harmfulness as well as control
measures. Identification was carried out using morphological characteristics according to Hoy
(2011) and molecular diagnostics according to Kontschán et al. (2018). Upon multiplication
of molecular markers 18S rRNA, cox 1 and ITS2 by polymerase chain reaction, samples were
sequenced and bioinformatic analysis confirmed the species was Penthaelus major.
Morphology, developmental cycle, harmfulness as well as control measures are presented on
the basis of reviews of recent scientific and professional literature.
