Abstract

Quaintance & Baker (1914) described the whitefly genus Pealius and designated Aleurodes maskelli Bemis, 1904 as the type species. Pealius quercus (Signoret, 1868) is a predominantly northern and central European species. It has been found in Croatia on the English oak (Quercus robur L.) in a mixed forest in Zagreb. The genus Pealius and the species P. quercus are new for the whitefly fauna of Croatia.
