Remarks
- Structure: Colour photograph of adult female and male given by Covassi & Binazzi (1992). Adult females are dark brownish, elongated with almost parallel body sides; 3–5 mm long, 1.0–1.6 mm wide. Eggs yellow; 0.35 mm × 0.15 mm. Egg masses round, covered by white waxy filaments, normally found inside crevices of pine bark. Female dried bodies are found close to the egg masses. Nymphs creamy yellow, elongate, about 0.4 mm long. First-instar nymphs (crawlers) are very active with developed legs and a long, curled stylet. (Kondo, et al., 2022)
- Biology: The paralectotype female contains the fully developed larva inside of her body. (Gavrilov-Zimin, 2018) Matsucoccus feytaudi is univoltine. Most of the life cycle stages are hidden inside the crevices of the bark on the tree trunk or large branches. Male flight season from February until April, with maximum activity in early March. Adult virgin females emit a sex pheromone to attract males to mate. (Kondo, et al., 2022) Dispersal is mostly by crawlers during spring. Especially when populations are high, crawlers disperse by wind, allowing long-distance dispersal. (Kondo, et al., 2022)
- Economic Importance: Schvester (1971) considered this species as the primary agent causing decline of Pinus maritimus in France. Early detection and risk assessment are considered a fundamental aspect of a management plan. Monitoring of adult males with pheromone traps has proved to be very effective in locating M. feytaudi infestations before the onset of tree decay and in implementing timely measures for prevention and control. Current silvicultural practices such as selective cutting and removal of infested or sensitive trees can help in preventing the establishment of M. feytaudi invasion, while other control methods include mass-trapping of emerging males and use of kairomones to attract natural enemies. (Roversi, et al., 2013) Provenances showing specific adaptation to near-optimal growing conditions (e.g., Vivario and Arenas de San Pedro in Rome) were severely attacked by the insect at the Bordighera trial. Particularly, Arenas de San Pedro has been earmarked as seedstock because of its combination of traits conferring increased growth and drought resistance (Corcuera et al. 2012). This provenance, however, was not particularly fast-growing and showed high susceptibility to M. feytaudi. On the other hand, provenances showing adaptation to less favorable conditions were comparatively much less affected, and one (Tamjoute) showed no visual symptoms of damage. (Matteo & Voltas, 2016)
