Basic Information
Aleurocanthus spiniferus
citrus spiny whitefly, Orange spiny whitefly, Orange Spiny Whitefly
Aleurocanthus spiniferus, the citrus spiny whitefly, is an insect native to Asia. It is considered an invasive pest, notably affecting citrus and tea plants. They are part of the whitefly family. A. spiniferus is indigenous to parts of tropical Asia, where it was first discovered in Japan c.?1903, soon after which it spread around the world. Wherever it is found, it has become a highly destructive pest. Two populations of A. spiniferus are known: the citrus spiny whitefly, as well as the tea spiny whitefly, named for the kind of plant they infest.
