A Weevil Pest Of Rose-apple (Syzygium Jambos), Apparently New To The United States

Introduction

Normally a circular such as this would not be written without knowing the scientific name of the pest involved. Because this species was only recently found in Florida, it is presumed to be introduced, and therefore additional information is needed. This circular is prepared to acquaint field personnel with the weevil in the hope of obtaining additional distribution records and information on biology and economic importance.
