  "abstract": "<p>We present the first Middle-Eastern record of <em>Thaumastocoris peregrinus</em> Car&shy;pintero &amp; Dellap&eacute;, an invasive pest that feeds and develops only on euca&shy;lyp&shy;tus trees. This species was found in Israel for the first time in <em>Eucalyptus camaldu&shy;lensis</em> stands in October 2014. A survey of several eucalyptus groves was con&shy;ducted in Tel Aviv and its surroundings to assess the geographical dis&shy;tri&shy;bu&shy;tion and host-plant associations of <em>T. peregrinus</em>. We summarize new and old data on this species, i.e., its identification, immature stages, bio&shy;logy, pheno&shy;logy, and damage caused to the host plant.&nbsp;</p>\n\n<p>&nbsp;</p>",
