Management control of the red coffee BORER, Zeuzera spp. (LEPIDOPTERA: COSSIDAE) ON Eucalyptus pellita F. MUELL. USING ENTOMOPHATOGENIC FUNGI

The Red Coffee Borer, Zeuzera spp. (Lepidoptera: Cossidae), is one of the major insect pests of Eucalyptus pellita plantations. The larvae may cause holes in stems, thereby reducing log productivity and have difficulty to control the larval stage. The use of biological agents has been carried out, h...
