Abstract

This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Lashkari, Mohammadreza, Mansouri, Seyed Mozaffar (2025): New records of jumping plant lice (Hemiptera: Psylloidea) from Iran. Zootaxa 5727 (1): 198-207, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.5727.1.13, URL: https://doi.org/10.11646/zootaxa.5727.1.13AbstractColposcenia albomaculata Loginova (Aphalaridae) and Cacopsylla initialis (Loginova) (Psyllidae) are recorded for the first time from Iran. The former was previously known only from Afghanistan, Tadzhikistan, Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan, and the latter from Armenia and the Korean Peninsula. Here we discuss morphological characters for separating Colposcenia albomaculata and the similar C. osmanica Vondráček, and we redescribe C. initialis. Moreover, morphological similarity suggests that C. initialis and Psylla praevia Loginova are congeneric, and, therefore, we propose the following new combination: Cacopsylla praevia (Loginova), comb. nov.
