the Hawaii Department of Agriculture for the control of 4 weeds (Clidemia hirta, Coccinia grandis, Passiflora mollissima, and Ulex europaeus) and 9 insect pests (Bemisia argentifolii, Brontispa chalybeipennis, Elasmopalpus lignosellus, Frankliniella
occidentalis, Heteropsylla cubana, Liriomyza spp., Nezara viridula, Plutella xylostella,
and Sipha flava).
