Abstract: The ladybird Harmonia axyridis (Pallas, 1773) (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae) was
introduced as a biological control agent for aphids in several continents,
including South America, and has become an invasive species in many countries.
It has been reported from Brazil, the states of Paraná and Rio Grande do Sul
and from Argentina, specifically Buenos Aires. Here we announce the first record
of this species for Uruguay. We found several adults in 2009 and a group of
early instar larvae in 2010, strongly suggesting that this species is
established in Uruguay.
Key words: Multicolored Asian Ladybird, distribution, invasion, Uruguay, Neotropical region
