Abstract

This is a new geographical report of Stenoma catenifer Waslingham feeding on Persea schiedeana Nees that grows in areas of natural vegetation near small fruit orchards at Hueytamalco, Puebla, Mexico. P. schiedeana fruit that might be infested with S. caternifer is sold in local markets. This report suggests implementation of phytosanitary regulations to reduce the risk of this pest establishing in pest-free areas where ‘Hass’ avocado is grown.

Este es un nuevo reporte geográfico de Stenoma catenifer Waslingham alimentándose en Persea schiedeana Nees en áreas de vegetación natural cercanas a huertos de frutas pequeñas en Hueytamalco, Puebla, México. La fruta de P. schiedeana que puede estar infestada es vendida en los mercados locales. Este reporte sugiere la implementación de regulaciones fitosanitarias para reducir el riesgo del establecimiento de esta plaga en zonas libres de ella, donde el aguacate ‘Hass’ se cultiva.
