Ants have been shown as particularly affected by land disturbance through deforestation and conversion of forest to agriculture. The
effect of land use change on ant diversity in the Congo Basin is not well known. We conducted intensive sampling along a gradient of
increasing vegetation disturban...

The scale insect, Stictococcus vayssierei, is one of the major pests and constraints to cassava production in
the Congo Basin. It is frequently found associated with the ground nesting ant, Anoplolepis tenella, under
cassava plant. Amdro fire ant bait granules (contains 7.3 g/kg Hydramethylnon), ...

In 2003, the invasive fruit ßy Bactrocera invadens Drew, Tsuruta & White (Diptera:
Tephritidae) (Drew et al. 2005), of possible Sri Lankan origin, has been detected in the East and about
1 yr later in West Africa. In regular surveys in Benin and Cameroon covering 4 yr, samples from 117

Maize farmers in sub-Saharan Africa recently experienced unusual damage in their farms, attributed to the fall armyworm (FAW) Spodoptera frugiperda (J. E. Smith). This pest was first recorded in Africa in 2016, but detailed information on its distribution and damage and farmer's response in invad...

The African root and tuber scale Stictococcus vayssierei Richard is the only known hypogeal species of the family Stictococcidae. Its wide range of host plants together with concurrently field observed differences in host preference provided evidence of polyphagy or the involvement of more than a...
