Notes: A major infestation of Insignorthezia insignis (Hemiptera: Ortheziidae) was recorded on rosemary (Salvia rosmarinus, Family: Lamiaceae). The farmers applied conventional insecticides without success due to the resistance of the pest. Instead, the farmers applied spirotetramat that increased the costs of production in Los Reyes de Juárez, Puebla, Mexico. https://doi.org/10.3958/059.049.0433
