The parasitoid Gyranusoidea tebygi Noyes was released in West Africa against the mango mealybug, Rastrococcus invadens Williams, a pest that invaded Africa in the early 1980s. The ability of G. tebygi to control the mango mealybug was assessed in mango trees using paired sleeve cages. In sleeve c...

The spatial dispersion pattern and the intracanopy distribution of the mango mealybug, Rastrococcus invadens Williams, were assessed during one year in a small mango plantation, in order to develop sampling plans and facilitate sampling in mango trees. Mean number of mango mealybugs per leaf diff...

Life history traits of the mango mealybug, Rastrococcus invadens Williams, were compared between two neighboring mango trees (Mangifera indica L.), one of which was heavily infested and the other slightly infested. On the infested tree, mealybug survival was high because of good feeding condition...
