dc.description.abstractRhynchophorus ferrugineus is a weevil native to southern Asia and Melanesia which was accidentally introduced and established in Malta since 2007. This insect has been causing extensive damage to Canary Island palms (Phoenix canariensis) in the majority of towns around Malta. Morphometric measurements are provided and variation in the spots present on the pronotum of adult weevils in Malta is reported and compared with that found in Sicily. Suggested measures for the management of red palm weevil in Malta are also included.en_GB
