Comments
Luperomorpha xanthodera
is native for China and Korean peninsula. In 2003 it was recorded in Europe for the first time (in England) and then began to spread quickly. To date it has been also recorded in France, Italy, Switzerland, Germany, The Netherlands, Hungary, Austria,
Poland and Belgium. In 2018 we report (Bienkowski, Orlova-Bienkowskaja, 2018) the first record from Russia.
Fourteen specimens were collected in 2016 and 2017 in Sochi, at the Black Sea shore of the Caucasus. Luperomorpha xanthodera is established in Sochi, since the beetles were found on grasses in the wastelands and on the bank of the pond, and on rose flowers on the streets of the city.
