The fig psylla Homotoma ficus (Homotomidae, Psylloidea) is reported for the first time
from Serbia where it has recently been found in 12 localities. It is a Mediterranean species
which has been introduced together with cultivated fig plants also outside their original
distributional range. It can cause economic damage on its host in certain years. A diagnosis
and illustrations of adult, larva and egg of H. ficus are provided and information is given on
its distribution, life cycle and natural enemies in Serbia. Tokom istraživanja faune lisnih buva Srbije na više lokaliteta je po prvi put registrovana
smokvina lisna buva Homotoma ficus (Homotomidae, Psylloidea). To je mediteranska vrsta
koja je introdukovana zajedno sa smokvom i u druge regione. Ponekad može da dovede do
značajnijih ekonomskuih šteta u regionima gajenja smokve.
U radu je dat opis vrste, biologija, rasprostranjenost u Srbiji, kao i registrovani predatori.
