The results of long-term survey of аrumored scales (Sternorrhyncha: Diaspididae) that was provided in urban landscapes in Forest-Steppe and Steppeе zones of Ukraine are presented. The species composion of alien armored scales consists of 24 species from 19 genera. 10 species were found in open field whereas 14 species were registered in green house. The most distributed were A. nerii, D. boisduvalii та D. bromeliae. The vast majority of species found in survey belong to polyphagous and represent alien species. Due to climate change, in summer there has been a shi of sub tropically originated armor scales(Aspidiotus nerii, Diaspis boisduvalii and D. bromeliae) from greenhouses to open field host plants. The coconut scale Pinnaspis buxi Bouch was recorder for the first me in this study. The features of the invasive armored scales adaptaon in light of the of their development is discussed. Analysis of some important aspects of the development of morphological features of armored scales and other so scales species of under the influence of abioc factors indicated that the evoluon of this group of insects occurred not only by adaptaon but also by avoiding environmental influences. The evoluon of environmental avoidance has taken place in all families of Coccoidea. The formaon of the shield is seen not only as a way to avoid the influence of the environment, but as the transion of these insects to another level of evoluon - the transformaon of the environment to their needs.
