This article details three adventive (to North America) psyllid species that feed on ficus. Homotoma ficus (the fig psylla) was noticed first in 1969, and Macrohomotoma gladiata curtain psyllid) Trioza brevigenae leaf rolling were found to be present 2015 2016, respectively.

Data on natural enemies of psyllids are rare and can usually be found in papers about economically significant species. During an investigation of psyllid fauna in Serbia, natural enemies were investigated, too. True bugs were the most numerous among them.

We have studied the effect of different light gradient regimes on host-plant selection of the carrot psyllid, Trioza apicalis Förster. In both a strong and a weak light gradient, carrot psyllids preferred a carrot leaf placed in higher light intensity. When the choice was between the host (carrot Daucus carota L.) and a non-host (barley Hordeum vulgare L.) virgin adults settled significantly mo...
