Phenacoccus Solenopsis

The cotton mealybug Phenacoccus solenopsis Tinsley (Hemiptera: Pseudococcidae), is an emerging invasive insect pest in China. Hymenopteran parasitoids are the key organisms for suppressing populations of P. solenopsis in the field, and therefore could be used as biological agents. Accurate identification of the associated parasitoids is the critical step to assess their potential role in biological control. In this study, we facilitated the identification of the parasitoid composition of P. solenopsis using an integrated approach of species delimitation, combining morphology with molecular data. Eighteen Hymenoptera parasitoid species belonging to 11 genera of four families are recognized based on morphological examination and molecular species delimitation of the mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase 1 (COI) gene and the 28S rDNA using the automatic barcode gap discovery (ABGD) and the Bayesian Poisson tree processes model (bPTP). Among these species, eight species are primary parasitoids with Aenasius arizonensis (Girault) (Hymenoptera: Encyrtidae) being the dominant taxon, while the other 10 species are probably hyperparasitoids, with a prevalence of Cheiloneurus nankingensis Li & Xu (Hymenoptera: Encyrtidae). These results indicate that parasitoid wasps associated with P. solenopsis from China are diverse and the integrated taxonomic approach applied in this study could enhance the accurate identification of these parasitoids that should be assessed in future biological control programs.

Resumo. Phenacoccus solenopsis Tinsley (Hemiptera: Pseudococcidae) é relatada pela primeira vez associada ao mogno brasileiro, Swietenia macrophylla King (Meliaceae). Infestações deste pseudococcídeo foram observadas sobre folhas e ramos de mudas do mogno cultivadas em casa de vegetação, em Brasília, Distrito Federal, Brasil. O controle da cochonilha foi realizado manualmente e/ou com aplicação de solução de água com detergente neutro a 10%.Occurrence of the mealybug Phenacoccus solenopsis Tinsley (Hemiptera: Pseudococcidae) on mahogany seedlings (Swietenia macrophylla King)Abstract. Phenacoccus solenopsis Tinsley (Hemiptera: Pseudococcidae) is reported for the first time on brazilian mahogany, Swietenia macrophylla King (Meliaceae). Infestations of this Pseudococcidae were observed on leafs and branches of mahogany seedlings cultivated in a greenhouse, in Brasilia, Federal District, Brazil. The control of the mealybug was realized manually and/or with application of water solution with 10% of neutral detergent.

Abstract This mealybug species has the ability to increase rapidly in population size and spread to cover vast areas where host plants occur, in a relatively short period of time. It has been reported from over 200 hosts. Since the original description of P. solenopsis from Atriplex canescens in New Mexico, USA in 1898, no reports on its presence were reported until 1967 (McKenzie, 1967; McDaniel, 1975). Later, Fuchs et al. (1991) reported small, sporadic populations on cotton in Runnels County, Texas, USA in 1988 that spread 75 to 200 miles from the original site with contiguous populations by 1990. With the increase in international trade over the last few decades, this invasive pest has been collected and identified on host material at international ports and in greenhouses outside its native range (Jansen, 2004). As such, P. solenopsis has become established in the Afrotropical, Australasian, Nearctic, Neotropical, and Oriental regions.
