Insects associated to leaf rolling of Tabebuia spp. in nurseries and urban areas of Curitiba, Paraná, Brazil
Keywords:
Trumpet tree, leaf, pestAbstract
Some Tabebuia species (Tabebuia alba, T. chrysotricha and T. heptaphylla) present deformed young leaves. A survey was performed randomly on young trees, from one month to three years old in"Viveiro Municipal da Barreirinha" and trees of urban areas of the Curitiba city, PR, Brazil. Small twigs with symptoms were collected from each plant in order to identify the associated insects, revealing the presence of several species of Coleoptera, Hymenoptera, Hemiptera and Diptera. However, it was verified that the leaf rolling is caused by Trioza tabebuiae (Hemiptera: Psylloidea) injuries.Downloads
