This study provides taxonomic and ecological data on Hemiptera (Insecta) order prevalence in Berati region habitats in Southern Albania. Diverse natural environments, fields, and hilly and mountainous habitats characterize this region. The expeditions for the biological material collection were organized during 2018-2020 in six stations from May to September. Our study refers to 38 species, representing 28 genera and 10 families of the order Hemiptera. Taxonomical results on the family distribution indicate that the highest belonged to Pentatomidae, with 12 species or 31.5%, followed by Miridae, with 9 species and 23.6%. Regarding species diversity, the Lybesha station had the highest diversity, with 16 species or 41.1%, while the Lapardha station had the lowest diversity, with six species or 15.7%. Estimating species similarity by the Jaccard coefficient indicates the Lybesha and Peshtani stations, with four common species and a species similarity coefficient of 16.6%, reflecting the ecological factors' similarity between these stations.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
