Resumen
Descripción
Biological control programs have been mounted in some region(s) of the
world against 13 of the 16 dossier pests and substantial or partial success has
been achieved in one or more countries for 8. On the basis of available
information there are good to excellent prospects for reducing, in at least
some parts of the region, the damage caused by the following:
Leucinodes
orbonalis
,
Nezara viridula
,
Ophiomyia phaseoli
and
Planococcus citri
.
There are also good reasons for believing that there will prove to be valuable
natural enemies for the following:
Agrius convolvuli, Anomis flava
,
Aphis
craccivora
,
Aphis gossypii
,
Diaphorina citri
,
Dysmicoccus brevipes
,
Hypothenemus hampei
,
Phyllocnistis citrella
and
Trichoplusia ni
. There
seems to be little prospect for classical biological control of
Dysdercus
cingulatus,
too little is known about
Deanolis sublimbalis
and the prospects
for control of
Cosmopolites sordidus
are unclear, although its lack of pest
status in Myanmar is puzzling.
