| Summary: | The presence of eggplant mealybug, Coccidohystrix insolita (Green) (Hemiptera:
Pseudococcidae) from Indonesia and it infested host plants have been reported in this paper. It
was collected in 2017 on cassava, Manihot utilissima in Central Java; additional samples were
collected on Turkey berry, Solanum torvum in East and West Java in 2020, and in Aceh
(Sumatra) in 2021. In a rearing experiment, the survivorship of C. insolita on three host plant
species, Solanum melongena (eggplant), Solanum lycopersicon (tomato), and Capsicum
annuum (chilli) was tested; based on the non-parametric Dunn’s test at a 5% level, the mealybug
thrives best on Solanum melongena. |
