Feeds on

Polyphagous ( Ossiannilsson 1992). In Bulgaria, reported from Allium cepa L. ( Konov 1961), Brassica oleracea L., Daucus carota L. ( Harizanov and Lauterer 1968) and Solanum tuberosum L. ( Harizanov 1970).

Notes

The report by Konov (1961) on B. nigricornis from Allium cepa could concern the similar Bactericera tremblayi (Wagner, 1961) , which is known from onion and leek crops in neighbouring countries ( Serbia, Greece and Turkey: Jerinić-Prodanović (2010), Ouvrard and Burckhardt (2012)), but has not been documented from Bulgaria.

Adult (Fig. 102 a View Figure 102 a ) and fifth-instar immature. Ossiannilsson (1992), Burckhardt and Freuler (2000).
