First records of Ceroplastes ceriferus (Fabricius) (Hemiptera: Coccidae) and Ceroplastes japonicus (Gray) in Switzerland identified by DNA barcoding
EPPO Bulletin(2021)
Abstract
Wax soft scales (Hemiptera: Coccidae) include many important pest species of agricultural and ornamental plants which spread along international trading networks of plants and plant material. Here we report the first findings of the wax scales Ceroplastes japonicus and Ceroplastes ceriferus for Switzerland. The two new findings of Ceroplastes were collected on Laurus nobilis and Vaccinium myrtillus , respectively, and identified by DNA barcoding.
