EPPO Global Database

Planococcus kenyae(PLANKE)

Distribution details in Rwanda

Situation
Current pest situation evaluated by EPPO on the basis of information dated 1978: Present, no details
From CABI Pest map 384 (2001): Absent, unreliable record
Comments
CABI map discounts the report of Buyckx, for Zaire and Burundi also, on the grounds of the "known discontinuous distribution of this mealybug" but this hardly seems an adequate justification.
