Abstract: Bactericera reuteri (Šulc, 1913) Notes Further confirmation is also needed for B. reuteri, which was recorded by Głowacka and Harizanov (1983) from conifers at high altitudes in the Rhodope Mountains. It is likely that this record concerns the closely-related, similar and recently-described B. lyrata (Seljak et al. 2008, Seljak and Malenovský 2014) or B. harrisoni, which was erroneously described and illustrated as ' Trioza reuteri ' by Dobreanu and Manolache (1962) (see Conci and Tamanini (1985 c)). The latter two species are confirmed in this paper on the basis of recently-collected material from Bulgaria. Bactericera reuteri is distributed in central and northern Europe, Russia and Mongolia and is monophagous on Potentilla anserina L. (Seljak et al. 2008). Potentilla anserina occurs in Bulgaria, but is restricted to the Danube Plain, with a maximum altitude of 300 m a. s. l. (Assyov et al. 2012), which makes the occurrence of B. reuteri at high altitude of the Rhodope Mountains unlikely.
