Changes in the composition of the fauna associated with the cassava mealybug, Phenacoccus manihoti, following the introduction of the parasitoid Epidinocarsis lopezi
Over 130 species of insects were found in association with the cassava mealybug (CM), Phenacoccus manihoti, and its newly introduced parasitoid Epidinocarsis lopezi in Africa.
