AbstractThis paper reviews the occurrence of the genus Chlorochroa Stål in Canada. It is shown that 10 species occur in this country, namely C. belfragii (Stål), C. faceta (Say), C. congrua Uhler, C. granulosa (Uhler), C. ligata (Say), C. opuntiae Esselbaugh, C. persimilis Horvath, C. rossiana Buxton and Thomas, C. uhleri (Stål), and C. viridicata (Walker). Chlorochroa sayi (Stål) does not occur in Canada. The published records of C. sayi as a pest of agricultural crops and ornamentals in Canada refer to C. uhleri.

In the summer of 2020 on the plantations of Phytolacca americana L. (pokeberry) growing in the central zone of the Republic of Moldova, a new, economically dangerous pest species was discovered, known as the southern green stink bug or southern vegetable bug – Nezara viridula L. (Heteroptera: Pentatomidae). At both stages of bug development, larvae and adults seriously harm agricultural crops, ornamental and wild plants. The number of larvae was high and reached to 3-5 per pokeberry bunch. In the same field, N. viridula larvae and imago were also found on tomato and amaranth plants.
