sorry, I checked again the dvi file and it shows both index entries. 
However, lyx does not. It chokes with

l.3 ...lash {}textit\{Leptinotarsa decemlineata\}}

which is from an index entrance in a "Namensverzeichnis" (index of names):

Leptinotarsa decemlineata@\textit{Leptinotarsa decemlineata}
an alternative for \textit would have been \textemph
both should produce slanted names. 

###But I did here probably something wrong###

I read again 6.6.5 of the user guide of LyX helps:

In general, we encourage you to not format page numbers directly as shown 
above. Instead, you should define a macro in the preamble and use that. 
Maybe you want all page references italic that refer to a definition of the 
indexed term, so that users can easily find definitions. If so, put the 
following in the preamble

\newcommand{\IndexDef}[1]{\textit{#1}}

and write

my entry|IndexDef

in the index entry.
The advantage is that, if you change your mind later or if your publisher 
insists that definitions must not be italic but bold, you just need to 
change the macro in the preamble, not every single index entry.

###I will try this and ask again if I do not succed###

Thanks for your patience,

Wolfgang
