چکیده
The present study investigated the biology and morphometric analysis of rugose spiralling whitefly (RSW), Aleyrodicus rugioperculatus on coconut under mini net house condition at Department Agricultural Entomology, Tamil Nadu University-Coimbatore during 2019-2020. was studied by clip cage method morphometrics were done using Leica image analyser. Total lifecycle spiraling 56.23 ± 2.20 days. Developmental period egg, nymphal, pupal adult 8.47 0.26, 17.46 0.76, 10.30 0.29 20.00 1.00 days, respectively. In morphometrics, Length width egg (0.31 0.01 mm 0.11± 0.02 mm), nymphal (0.94 0.82 (1.23 mm) recorded. A parasitoid, Encarsia guadeloupae can be potential natural enemy for effective management whitefly.

Distribution and importance of woolly whitefly (Aleurothrixus floccosus) (Maskell) (Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae), was studied in Ethiopia with an evaluation of treatments against it. Results showed that the pest is distributed in most citrus-growing parts of the country equally infesting all types of citrus crops. Only one pupal parasitoid, Amitus sp., was recorded at Melkaoba. During 2006-2007, eig...

A new monotypic genus of whiteflies (Aleyrodidae), Gadigaleyrodes gen.n., is described and illustrated for G. froggatti sp.n. from New South Wales, Australia. Specimens were collected by W. W. Froggatt in 1899 on Syncarpia glomulifera, and subsequently by P. S. Gillespie on an unknown climbing plant. The genus has unusual morphological features with traits common to both Aleurodicinae and Aleyr...

The greenhouse whitefly, Trialeurodes vaporariorum Westwood, is the most common and abundant whitefly in Argentine horticultural greenhouse crops, especially in tomato (Solanum lycopersicum). Resistance in some wild tomato relatives, such as S. peruvianum, S. habrochaites and S. pennellii to the greenhouse whitefly has been described. The Mi gene confers effective resistance against several spe...
