The Mango Seed Weevil, Sternochetus Mangiferae (Fab.)

Introduction

The mango seed weevil, Sternochetus mangiferae (Fab.), has not been found in Florida, but its presence in the major mango producing areas of the world indicates that it is a potential pest here. This circular is prepared to acquaint plant specialists in south Florida with this insect so that it might be more readily detected if it should become introduced.
