Recording whitefly species (Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae) and their host plants from Brazil

ABSTRACT Whiteflies (Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae) comprise a group of phytophagous insects, with worldwide distribution. This group has 1,556 described species, with members concentrated in the tropics. In Brazil, as the literature on species of Aleyrodidae and associated plants is limited, our study presents species of whiteflies and their host plants collected in some Brazilian regions. New host plants or new occurrence locations for species already known in the country are presented, in addition to the record of Aleurotulus laneus Martin, a species not yet reported in Brazil.
