“Alien versus predator”: predatory effect of coccinellid Exochomus quadripustulatus on the scale insect Toumeyella parvicornis. An open‐field experimentation on the Pinus pinea of Rome

Insect Science, EarlyView.
The release of gravid Exochomus quadripustulatus females proved to be effective in containing Toumeyella parvicornis infestations on stone pine trees, under open‐field condition. The ladybugs caused a lower infestation level compared to the trees that did not receive any ladybugs during the observation season.

Methyl Jasmonate and Methyl Salicylate Differentially Modulate Direct and Indirect Defenses in Coffee Plants Against the White Mealybug

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
MeJA application strengthened both direct and indirect coffee defenses against the white mealybug Planococcus citri, whereas the effects of MeSA were variable and context‐dependent across the defensive traits examined. The combined application of both elicitors produced an effect similar to MeSA on direct defenses, but resembled MeJA when indirect ...

Thermal Limits and Future Climate Projections Indicate Declining Habitat Suitability for Mealybug Species of Citrus in Africa

Global Change Biology Communications, Volume 1, Issue 3, September 2026.
The mean critical thermal maxima varied significantly across species with Delottococcus aberiae showing the highest heat tolerance, whereas Planococcus citri recorded the lowest. All mealybug species exhibited substantial contractions in climatically suitable areas by 2100, with Pseudococcus calceolariae recording the greatest proportional decline ...
