Mezira tremulae tremulae (Germar, 1822), a rare saproxylic species of flat bugs (Hemiptera: Heteroptera: Aradidae), is recorded here for the first time from the White Carpathians (eastern Moravia, Czech Republic). It was found in an old beech forest within the Sidonie Nature Reserve in the Vlárský průsmyk Pass. The distribution of M. tremulae tremulae in the Czech Republic is discussed and shown in a map.
