The biological structure of the Syrian marine environment still shows a rapid and steady increase in the number of warm water species, many of which have become dominant and invasive. In the latest field data during 2020-2021, the presence of the black sea urchin Diadema antillarum (Philippi, 1845) was recorded for the first time in several locations in Latakia and Ras al-Bassit coast, and its massive spread at depths of 5-8 m, accompanied by invasive species of macroalgae, sponges, crustaceans and mollusks.. It is noteworthy that this species is one of the most widespread and important species of sea urchins in some tropical areas, and this is the first record in the Mediterranean Sea and the Syrian coast It is important as it prey on macroalgae and has an effective role in the health of some of the most important areas of biodiversity in the world.

Larvae samples of Papilio machaon (Linnaeus, 1758) were collected along with its host plant Foeniculum from Tartous governorate (Baniyas and Al Qadmous), Syria during the autumn of 2019. Samples were examined at the Laboratory of Entomology, Faculty of Agriculture, Tishreen University. The larvae were reared and observed at 25±1°C, 60±5% RH, and 16 hr light: 8 hr dark photoperiod, until the emergence of either the parasitoid, Buquetia musca (Robineau-Desvoidy, 1847) (Diptera: Tachinidae) or the host adults. The parasitoid larvae emerged from the 5 th instar larvae and/or pupal stage. The pupal developmental period was 11.7±1.32 days (n= 13) and adult longevity was 6.2±2.3 days (n= 13).
