Abstract

Psallus salicicola sp.nov. is described from northern Canada. Dorsal habitus and male genitalia illustrations are included. Psallus aethiops Zetterstedt is considered to be the senior synonym of P. drakei Knight. Additional distributional records are given for P. aethiops and P. betuleti (Fallén) from Alaska and northern and maritime Canada, which indicate that these two species are genuinely Holarctic taxa.

Résumé

Les pièces génitales mâles et l’habitus de Psallus salicicola nouvelle espèce confinée au nord du Canada, sont illustrés. Psallus aethiops Zetterstedt est considéré comme un synonyme plus ancien de P. drakei Knight. Le caractère authentiquement holarctique de P. aethiops et de P. betuleti (Fallén) est démontré par la mention de nouvelles données de répartition géographique dans les Maritimes, le nord du Canada et l’Alaska.
