In recent years, a new pest Lasioptera sp, which causes significant damage in tomato production area has emerged. The pest has first been reported in tomato production areas of Mersin district in 2012 after it has been reported in Greece.

This report clearly showed that detailed studies on the biology and management of this pest in the tomato production should be done. |
