Psallus confusus Rieger and Salda morio (Zetterstedt) (Hemiptera: Heteroptera) Collected in Connemara

The second author collected 17 species of Heteroptera between 4 and 20 June 1998 during a field survey organized by the Irish Peatland Conservation Council at Clochar na gCon bog, Co Galway. The bog is part of Natural Heritage Area number 2034, named Connemara Bog Complex. It is located 8 km north-west of Spiddal (M0627). Two of the species, Psaltus confusus Rieger (Miridae) and Salda morio (Zetterstedt) (Saldidae), are reported here, because they are of special interest, being new to the Irish fauna and very rare, respectively. Voucher specimens are kept in the collection of the first author.
