Resumen
DAVID GIRALDO, Rubén Darío; QUIROZ GAMBOA, Jhon Albeiro; YEPES RODRIGUEZ, Francisco y SMITH PARDO, Allan Henry. NEW REGISTRATION OF Greenidea ficicola Takahashi (Hemiptera: Sternorrhyncha: Aphididae) IN GUAVA Psidium guajava (Myrtaceae) IN ANTIOQUIA, COLOMBIA. Rev. Fac. Nac. Agron. Medellín [online]. 2009, vol.62, n.1, pp.4999-5002. ISSN 0304-2847.
It is founded for the first time, the species of aphid Greenidea ficicola, Takahashi (Hemiptera: Sternorrhyncha: Aphididae) in the Antioquia Department (Colombia) associated to guava plants (Psidium guajava L.). The species was collected during intensive sampling done during the first semester of 2008, in the Aburra Valley and near municipalities. The species of aphid was also collected on "false laurel" (Ficus benjamina). Due to the importance of guava as food for humans as well as wild and domestic animals, it is considered important to report this species so that contention measures can be taken specially related with more sampling, life cycle and potential biological control agents to get to know better this pest and control its spread in the country.
