Abstract : A detailed account is provided of investigations in Reunion on the biology and control of numerous species of arthropod pests of fruit crops (especially citrus, but also mango, litchi and peach). Special attention is paid to the population dynamics of pests and their natural enemies in orchards, and biological control using parasites and (in one case) a pathogenic fungus.
