First Record of Edessa meditabunda (F.) on Lettuce in Mato Grosso State, Brazil
Tóm tắt
We report the first record of the stink bug Edessa meditabunda (F.) on lettuce Lactuca sativa in the organic vegetable garden “Cheiro Verde” in Tangará da Serra, State of Mato Grosso, Brazil (14°37′13″ S, 57°28′46″ W). During September, October, and November 2009, we collected 1,099 adults, 43 nymphs, and 29 egg masses. Feeding by this stink bug possibly caused early bolting.
