Cryptocephalus sinaita moricei Pic, 1908 is a phytophagous leaf-beetle, whose adults and larvae feed on Tamarix shoots and leaves. after mating, the fe male oviposits and simultaneously covers each egg with dark anal secretion. ap proximately half of the eggs are dropped beneath the tree, while the rest are ad hered to the tree shoots. the larva constructs a case that apparently provides pro tection from natural enemies. Developmental duration from the egg to adult takes three months under laboratory conditions at 25 ± 2 °C. In contrast to most congeners, C. s. moricei larvae can survive only on fresh shoots and leaves but not on de caying ones. accordingly, the ground-hatching larvae quickly locate a tree and climb up to the canopy to feed. When fully fed, the majority of larvae drop off the tree and pupate on the ground, whereas a minority pupate on the tree, at taching themselves to twigs. life history strategies, particularly regarding ovi position, feeding and pupation, are discussed.

the distribution range of Akis subtricostata covers Iran, Iraq, syria (lobl et al. 2008; Eleyjian 2010) and Turkey (Keskin & Yagmur 2008). Lobl et al. (2008) does not list this species for Jordan; however, it has already been recorded from a few localities in this area. Katbeh-Bader (1996) mentioned it from Dhulayl and Waitzbauer et al. (2004) referred to the area of Petra and Wadi arava (which is treated here as 'arava Valley).

This is the first report of the invasive scutellerid bug Deroplax silphoides (Thunberg, 1783) from Israel. The species is a pest of ornamental plants, whose immature stages and life history were previously unknown. Information on its nymphs, life history and distribution is provided and its association with Dodonaea viscosa (Sapindaceae) is reported for the first time.
