| dc.description | The geographical distribution of lethal yellowing (LY) disease of coconut palms, cocos nucifera L., in Florida is described. Based on paired sampling within and outside the LY-infected area of the mainland, Myndus crudus Van Duzee (Homoptera: Cixiidae), a planthopper suspected to be a vector of LY agent, was 40X more abundant in the infected area (P0.01). The coincidence in the distribution of LY disease with high population density of M. crudus increases this insect's status as a suspected vector. | |
