Synopsis
Excerpt from Citrus Fruit Insects in Mediterranean Countries
In Spain, during July, 1913, the Mediterranean fruit-fly was found in peaches and oranges, but in very limited numbers. The extent of infestation in peaches, its favorite food, amounted to only a fraction of 1 per cent. It is true that most of the peaches had not yet matured, and there is no doubt that a heavier infestation occurred later in the season. Many of the pears, apples, and other fruits were examined.

Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book presents an overview of the primary insect species that harm citrus plants grown for their fruit in areas around the Mediterranean Sea. The author spent time in Spain, Italy, and other Mediterranean areas to survey the citrus industry, examine the damage caused by these insects, and comment on how the insects and their effects compared to those found in his home state of California. The book places particular emphasis on the Mediterranean fruit fly, as its presence in the United States would be catastrophic for the citrus industry. The book provides detailed information on the biology of each insect and discusses the potential damage the insects could cause if they gained a foothold in the United States. The book's thorough investigation and accessible writing style make this an essential reference for entomologists, fruit growers, and anyone interested in the subject. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
