Résumé

Dialeurodes citri was first identified in New Caledonia in Noumea in the South province in February 2023 on a lemon tree in a residential area.

Ongoing investigations even if it seems to be present in several country areas.

At the moment no major damage has been noted on citrus production. Indeed many parasitoids and beneficials installed in New Caledonia are listed.
