Jarraya, A. 1970 Etat phytosanitaire des agrumes de Tunisie et perspectives de lutte contre leurs principaux ravageurs. [Phytosanitary state of Tunisian citrus and control of the main pests.]. Al Awamia 37: 85-89.
Notes: [Conference held in Morocco 26 to 31 October 1970, O.I.L.B., Groupe de Travail "Cochenilles des Agrumes".] Saissetia oleae is one of the main pests of citrus in Tunisia. Chemical sprays, although frequently used, are insufficient for checking outbreaks. Other scales mentioned include Chrysomphalus dictyospermi, Coccus hesperidum, Lepidosaphes beckii and Parlatoria ziziphi. A biological control project is discussed.
