Yonow, T., Kriticos, D.J., & Ota, N. 2017 The potential distribution of cassava mealybug (Phenacoccus manihoti), a threat to food security for the poor. PLoS One 12(3): e0173265. doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0173265

Notes: Niche models, such as CLIMEX, are useful tools to indicate where and when such threats may extend, and can assist with planning for biosecurity and the management of pest invasions. We build upon and update a CLIMEX niche model by Parsa et al. (PloS ONE 7: e47675), correcting inconsistent parameters and re-fitting it based on a careful examination of geographical distribution data and relevant literature.
