New records of some potential pest mealybugs (Hemiptera: Coccoidea: Pseudococcidae) in Japan

New records of some potential pest mealybugs (Hemiptera: Coccoidea: Pseudococcidae) in Japan Four species of mealybugs, Dysmicoccus neobrevipes, Phenacoccus defectus, Ph. parvus, and Ph. solenopsis (Hemiptera: Coccoidea: Pseudococcidae) are recorded for the first time from Japan in the Ryûkyû (Ryukyu) Archipelago, with brief biological notes. We discuss some features of these species compared with those of related species, D. brevipes and Ph. solani, and we consider their potential risks to Japanese agriculture and/or horticulture. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Applied Entomology and Zoology Springer Journals

Abstract

Four species of mealybugs, Dysmicoccus neobrevipes, Phenacoccus defectus, Ph. parvus, and Ph. solenopsis (Hemiptera: Coccoidea: Pseudococcidae) are recorded for the first time from Japan in the Ryûkyû (Ryukyu) Archipelago, with brief biological notes. We discuss some features of these species compared with those of related species, D. brevipes and Ph. solani, and we consider their potential risks to Japanese agriculture and/or horticulture.
