Abstract

Like other species of its genus in different parts of the cotton-growing areas of the world, Dysdercus sidae is a serious pest of cotton, not as has been stated from staining the lint by its excrement or being crushed in the gins, but from being the agent by which internal boll-rot fungi enter the green cotton boll.
