Colasposoma dauricum is a species of leaf beetle from eastern Asia.[3] It was first described by Carl Gustaf Mannerheim in 1849. It is known as a pest of sweet potatoes.[4]
C. dauricum and the similar species Colasposoma viridicoeruleum (formerly known as Colasposoma auripenne) are sometimes considered to be a single species, with C. dauricum dauricum as the northern subspecies, and C. dauricum auripenne as the southern subspecies.[5][6]
Distribution[edit]
C. dauricum is known from Russia (Siberia and Far East), Kazakhstan, Mongolia, China (North and Northeast), Taiwan, North Korea, South Korea and Japan.[7] Since 2010, C. dauricum has also been recorded from Piedmont, Italy, where it is an invasive species.[8]
