Abstract
A comprehensive biovigilance programme was undertaken in 2018 to monitor potential insect vectors of viruses of grapevines (
Vitis vinifera
; Vitaceae) in two vineyards in Québec. Two hundred seventy-four insects were collected using yellow sticky traps and sweeping nets. Collected specimens were first classified into orders, with special attention given to the Hemiptera order, which is the main group of virus vectors. Hemipteran pests were identified to species. Among these specimens, one adult of
Rossmoneura tecta
McAtee (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae) was identified, the first report of this species in Canada.
Empoasca vincula
DeLong,
Erythroneura acuticephala
Robinson, and
Erythroneura cymbium
McAtee, three other species belonging to the same family and previously reported in other Canadian provinces, were also identified for the first time in Québec. Further investigations are being undertaken to test the ability of these species to transmit grapevine viruses.
