Abstract: 

Derephysia foliacea (Fallen) (Hemiptera: Heteroptera: Tingidae) is recorded fromNorth America for the first time, based upon specimens collected in western Oregon, chieflyon or near Mary's Peak, Benton County, Polk County, and the H. J. Andrews ExperimentalForest, eastern Lane County on the west slope of the Cascade Mountains. Several other Holarcticgenera and species of Hemiptera: Heteroptera occur with D. foliacea, suggesting a true Holarcticdistribution rather than an introduction. In the Palaearctic Region, the tingid is known fromWestern Europe, North Africa and eastward to Siberia, Mongolia and Japan.
