Eizaguirre, M., Arenas, N., Lumbierres, B., & Pons, X. 2002 [Pests of Palaeococcus fuscipennis Burm (Homoptera: Margarodidae) in pines and cypresses in the parks of Lleida.] Daños de Palaeococcus fuscipennis Burm (Homoptera: Margarodidae) en pinos y cipreses de los parques de Lleida.. Boletín de Sanidad Vegetal, Plagas 28(2): 199-205.
Notes: During the first 2 weeks of April 2001, a severe outbreak of Palaeococcus fuscipennis was detected on Pinus pinea and Pinus halepensis in public (urban) parks in Lleida, Spain. At that time, some specimens of Cupressus sempervirens were also attacked by the pest. Results are presented of studies on the evolution of the margarodid in treated and untreated trees during the season, the differences between the infestation of P. pinea and P. halepensis, and the presence of natural enemies (predators).
