Abstract
In this study the outbreak of the false chinch bug Nysius cymoides (Spinola, 1837) (Hemiptera: Heteroptera: Lygaeidae) was discussed in cultivated plants, in Adana, Adıyaman, Ankara, Aksaray, Çorum, Denizli, Diyarbakır, Elazığ, Erzincan, Eskişehir, Hatay, İstanbul, Karaman, Kastamonu, Kayseri, Konya, Manisa, Mardin, Mersin, Şanlıurfa, Şırnak, Tekirdağ, Tokat, Yalova and Yozgat provinces during summer of 2018-2019. The geographic location and climatic conditions of these provinces are very different. Therefore, studied pest can adapt to different climate conditions. In 2019, the massive presence of this pest caused several damage to crops such as lack of plant development, dead spots on the leaves even the death of plants. Pest outbreaks occur in drought and warm periods; they can be related to ground wastes and depend on the previous crop for other species of the same genus. Due to the highest host diversity, it can rapidly spread to new areas. A specific Integrated Pest Management (IPM) program is so suggested for the related pest.
