Abstract
Here we report about the first finding of an alien pest, the cotton leaf roller Haritalodes derogata (Fabricius, 1775) (Lepidoptera: Crambidae), on the Russian Black Sea Coast. In summer of 2021, the significant damage caused by H. degorata to Hibiscus spp. was documented in the ornamental plantations of Sochi. The current distribution data and the bionomics of the species in the invaded region are provided. The DNA barcoding data obtained for the specimens from Sochi are analyzed comparing to the species representatives from the other parts of the world.
