Abstract

Three insect pests (Coccus elongatus (Signoret), Aleyrodes proletella (L.) and Prays nephelomima Meyr.) and two mites, (Tarsonemus waitei Banks and Phyllocoptruta oleivora (Ashmead)) are recorded from New Zealand for the first time. In addition pests are recorded from 12 new host plants. A mealworm (Alphitobius diaperinus (Panz.)) is recorded as attacking polystyrene insulation, and the range of known occurrence of Australian Soldierfly (Inopus rubriceps (Macq.)) is extended northward to Kaikohe.
