03CA87B3FFD45079FF0AFEC49BBB6D02.taxon	diagnosis	Diagnosis. Corythucha arcuata is distinguished from other species of the same family by its general habitus. It defers from the other species of the same genus having the lateral pronotal carinae low and very short, anteriorly not or barely extending on convex pronotal disc. Lateral margins of paranota distinctly convex along their entire length. Elevation on hemelytra as well as anterior part of costal area with distinct blackish spots; some veins of pronotal hood, paranota and apical part of hemelytra dark (Golub & Soboleva, 2018). The alien-invasive species in Kosovo. The number of recently recorded animal alien-invasive species in Kosovo is 14, encompassing various taxa (Table 1). Additionally, this count of non-native species has been increasing annually.	en	Geci, Donard, Ibrahimi, Halil, Bilalli, Astrit, Musliu, Milaim (2024): Corythucha arcuata (Say, 1832) (Hemiptera, Tingidae) an invasive pest, with a review of the recent invasion of alien species to Kosovo.
