Abstract

Phradonoma cercyonoides Reitter, 1887 and Reesa vespulae (Milliron, 1939) (Megatominae: Megatomini) are reported for the first time from Greece. Distribution, invasiveness and status of both species are discussed. Phradonoma cercyonoides is tentatively suggested as alien to the country. An updated list of the non-native Dermestidae of Greece is provided, supplementing our knowledge on the alien Dermestidae of Europe.
