| Abstract: |
Dragon fruit (Selenicereus spp.), an emerging fruit crop in India, is increasingly affected by insect pests with the expansion of its cultivation. Infestation by three sucking pests, Aphis craccivora Koch, Ferrisia virgata Cockerell, and Halyomorpha picus Fabricius, was observed on Selenicereus costaricensis and Selenicereus megalanthus from Kerala.
