The present study reports the first data on the occurrence of the mosaic leafhopper, Orientus ishidae (Matsumura) (Hemiptera Cicadellidae), in Hungary. The species is of eastern Palaearctic origin and a few years after its first detection in the western Palaearctic it has been reported from several European countries. Recently the phytoplasma of Flavescence doree has been identified from O. ishidae individuals collected in Italy and Slovenia. Due to the fast spread and possible economic importance of the species, attention needs to be called to monitoring of this possible pest of grapevines.
