| Abstract | ||
| Sophora mollis (Royle) Backer, Anagyris foetida L. and Spartium junceum L. (Fabaceae), have serve dual roles as medicinal and ornamental shrubs. The first two species are deeply rooted in Iran's natural heritage, while the latter is a rare botanical find, as highlighted by Hosseinzadeh et al. (2015). Recent observations at the Kashan Botanical Garden have brought to light a significant ecological disturbance: the infestation of Uresiphita gilvata (Fabricius, 1794) larvae. Documented for the first time in October 1402 and subsequently in the spring of 1403. | ||
