Summary

After a short introduction to place the present problem ofA. aurantii in Morocco, the authors mention importation of twoAphytis species (A. lingnanensis andA. melinus), the efficient parasites of the California Red Scale in several countries.

Mass-breeding method used to build upAphytis production was this of the Californian workers, but numerous difficulties during 1966 have forbidden to raise a big production.

Field colonization has been realized and good results has been obtained with low host densities, in several orchards.

Now, the settlement of this problem should be searched out the «Integrated Control» and new export patterns for Citrus from Morocco.
