Resumen
PEREZ ARTILES, Lumey et al. First record of the Aleurovitreus insignis Bondar (Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae) on avocado (Persea americana Mill.) in Cuba. Ctro. Agr. [online]. 2020, vol.47, n.2, pp. 89-94. Epub 01-Abr-2020. ISSN 0253-5785.
The presence of whitefly species Aleurovitreus insignis Bondar on avocado trees (Persea americana Mill.) leaves in Artemisa province, Cuba, is recorded for the first time. The specimens were mounted, and species briefly described. The puparium of this new species has a pale cuticle, almost transparent, and the main differences from other species of the same genus are the presence of conspicuous brownish sclerosed patches on the head, abdominal base and in the anterior region of the vasiform orifice and very long caudal setae. The work contributes to enhancing the records of whiteflies in crops of economic importance for Cuba.
