slender springtails
Entomobrya is a genus of slender springtails in the family Entomobryidae, containing at least 270 described species. Members are characterized by elongated bodies and are among the most commonly encountered springtails in many terrestrial habitats. The genus has been documented across diverse environments including continental Europe, the Canary Islands, and cave systems in southern Spain. Species identification relies heavily on colour pattern and dorsal macrochaetotaxy, though colouration varies broadly within species and fades in preservative.
Epicriidae
Epicriidae is a family of predatory mites in the order Mesostigmata. The family is represented by four genera: Berlesiana, Cornubia, Diepicrius, and Epicrius. Most species diversity occurs in the genus Epicrius, which contains numerous described species distributed across Europe and other regions. These mites are soil-dwelling components of forest ecosystems.
Epiphanis cornutus
false click beetle
Epiphanis cornutus is a species of false click beetle in the family Eucnemidae. The species occurs across Europe, including the British Isles, and in North America. As a member of Eucnemidae, it belongs to a group of beetles commonly known as false click beetles, which are distinguished from true click beetles (Elateridae) by subtle morphological differences. The specific epithet 'cornutus' refers to horned or horn-like features, though detailed morphological descriptions of this particular species are limited in available sources.
Epistrophe grossulariae
Black-horned Smoothtail
Epistrophe grossulariae is a Holarctic hoverfly species in the family Syrphidae, commonly known as the Black-horned Smoothtail. It is a medium-sized syrphid fly with distinctive morphological features that distinguish it from congeners. The species has been well-documented across Europe with substantial observational records.
Epitrix brevis
Epitrix brevis is a flea beetle in the family Chrysomelidae, native to North America and recently detected as an invasive species in Europe. First recorded in Italy in 2024, it feeds on solanaceous plants including economically important crops. In its native range, it is not considered a major pest, but its establishment in Europe raises concerns for agricultural impacts due to favorable conditions and potential lack of natural enemies.
Epuraea imperialis
Epuraea imperialis is a small beetle species in the family Nitidulidae (sap beetles). The genus Epuraea comprises minute to small beetles typically associated with fermenting plant materials, fungi, and decaying organic matter. This species has been documented in Belgium and the broader European region. Like other nitidulids, it likely plays a role in nutrient cycling through its association with decomposing substrates.
Erasmoneura vulnerata
Wounded Leafhopper
Erasmoneura vulnerata is a small leafhopper native to North America that has become an invasive pest in European vineyards since its first detection in Italy in 2004. Adults measure 2.7–3.2 mm in length and exhibit seasonal color dimorphism. The species completes 2–3 generations per year, with nymphal development taking 16–20 days. Feeding on grapevine mesophyll causes characteristic pale speckled lesions, leaf curling, and premature defoliation. In its invaded range, it poses significant economic threat to viticulture, particularly in organic vineyards where natural insecticides show limited efficacy.
