Abstract

This is the first report on the occurrence of Citripestis eutraphera (Meyrick, 1935) (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae) from the Pakistani mainland causing extensive damage to mature and young mango fruits and leaves. Frequent surveillance in the district of Multan’s mango-growing areas showed that reports of Citripestis eutraphera incidence on Mangifera indica L. had been made in recent years. This notorious pest may soon harm producing mangoes and other fruits. This data will be useful in developing sustainable management strategies to combat the mango pest in the country and its neighbouring countries.
