Lali, T.S., & Muniappan, R. 1996 Distribution of the red coconut scale, Furcaspis oceanica Lindinger (Homoptera : Diaspididae) and its introduced parasitoid, Adelencyrtus oceanicus Doutt (Hymenoptera : Encyrtidae) in Guam.. Journal of Biological Control 10: 15-20.

Notes: A survey conducted from January to March 1996 to determine the distribution of the red coconut scale, Furcaspis oceanica, and its natural enemy, Adelencyrtus oceanicus, introduced to Guam in 1988-89, showed that both have spread to all villages of Guam except the southern most village of Umatac. There were more male F. oceanica than females in the samples collected. Males were not parasitized by A. oceanicus. A high rate of parasitization by A. oceanicus was noted in the villages of Talofofo, Harmon and Merizo.
