Population dynamics and life tables of the mango mealbug, Rastrococcus invadens Williams, and its introduced natural enemy Gyranusoidea tebygi Noyes in Benin
Life table data for Rastrococcus invadens and its introduced natural enemy Gyranusoidea tebygi were obtained in the field and in the laboratory. The mealybug population's potential rate of increase ranged from 0.066/day to 0.078/day. The potential for increase of the parasitoid was double that of it...
