Huang, B.H. 2006 Biological characteristics of Didesmococcus koreanus.. Chinese Bulletin of Entomology 43(1): 108-111.

Notes: Field observation and periodic sampling of Didesmococcus koreanus in a plum orchard in Anhui, China during 2003 revealed the occurrence of one generation per year. The second nymphal stage overwintered on brush and resumed its activity in March of the following year. Adults were observed from April to May. Eggs began to hatch between the first 10 days of June and mid-July. D. koreanus caused damage on trees mainly at the stages of sessile nymphs and adult females. Natural enemies were shown to have a high capability of controlling this pest.
