- W256779769 abstract "Tropical islands are paradises for potential invaders. They offer ideal conditions for pest proliferation: mild climate, numerous host-plants, and few competitors and natural enemies. The invasion of the glassy-winged sharpshooter, Homalodisca vitripennis Germar (= H. coagulata Say) (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae) in French Polynesia is a typical example. Homalodisca vitripennis was first recorded in Tahiti in 1999. It reproduced and spread very rapidly and a few years later was found in 10 islands of French Polynesia in three different archipelagos. It became an important pest threatening agriculture and native biodiversity, and created intolerable social and recreational problems. Further, massive uncontrolled populations on Tahiti presented an elevated invasion threat to other South Pacific nations. To minimize these problems, a classical biological control program against H. vitripennis was conducted using the host specific egg parasitoid Gonatocerus ashmeadi Girault (Hymenoptera: Mymaridae). After risk assessment studies indicated an acceptably low level of risk to non-target species, parasitoids were released in Tahiti in 2005. Within a few months, the parasitoid colonized all Tahiti and all other infested islands in French Polynesia. The impact of G. ashmeadi on H. vitripennis was extremely rapid and catastrophic in all infested islands. Arrival of G. ashmeadi slashed H. vitripennis densities by more than 95%. Pest populations were maintained at very low densities until now in spite of seasonal fluctuations. French Polynesia was a paradise for H. vitripennis and became a paradise for G. ashmeadi." @default.
