Occurrence patterns and integrated control techniques of Phyllocnistis citrella Stainton

Phyllocnistis citrella Stainton can damage citrus leaves, leading to reduced photosynthetic efficiency and affecting tree growth and fruit yield．At the same time, it also provides a pathway for pathogenic bacteria to invade, increasing risk of citrus trees being infected with other pests and diseases．Therefore, controlling and preventing Phyllocnistis citrella Stainton is of great significance for ensuring healthy growth of citrus and improving economic benefits．Biological characteristics, occurrence patterns, and monitoring and detection technology of Phyllocnistis citrella Stainton were introduced．A control strategy primarily based on agricultural measures was proposed, supplemented by physical, chemical, and biological control methods．
