Diorhabda meridionalis

''Diorhabda meridionalis'' is a species of leaf beetle known as the southern tamarisk beetle (SoTB) which feeds on tamarisk trees from Syria to western and southern Iran and southern Pakistan.〔Tracy and Robbins (2009) provide a detailed review of the distribution, biogeography, biology, and taxonomy of ''D. meridionalis'' that is a general source for most of this article.〕 The SoTB may have potential for use in North America as a biological pest control agent against saltcedar or tamarisk (''Tamarix'' spp.), an invasive species in arid and semi-arid ecosystems (where it might be less accurately referred to along with its closely related sibling species as the 'saltcedar beetle', 'saltcedar leaf beetle', 'salt cedar leaf beetle', or 'tamarisk leaf beetle') (Tracy and Robbins 2009).
== Taxonomy ==
The SoTB was first described from Minab, Iran as the subspecies ''Diorhabda carinulata meridionalis'' Berti and Rapilly (1973). Tracy and Robbins (2009) recognized ''Diorhabda meridionalis'' Berti and Rapilly as a separate species from ''Diorhabda carinulata'' (Desbrochers) based on comparisons of the male and female genitalia, and provided illustrated taxonomic keys separating the SoTB from the four other sibling species of the ''D. elongata'' (Brullé) species group: ''Diorhabda elongata'' (Brullé), ''Diorhabda carinata'' (Faldermann), ''Diorhabda sublineata'' (Lucas), and ''Diorhabda carinulata''.
