They tend to arrive during the hours of sunlight, having spent the winter living among weeds, brambles, reeds and similar plants. They can survive temperatures as low as -15\u00baC.<\/p>\n<p>The adults are around 2.5 millimetres in length, with membranous wings and legs that are adapted for jumping. Males and females can be distinguished through differences in the genito-anal area on the lower part of the insect\u2019s abdomen.<\/p>\n<p>Fertilization and ovarian maturation occur separately in this species: when the females reach maturity (stage M5) and maximum temperatures remain above 8\u00baC for a period of two days, they begin to lay their eggs. A hibernating female lays an average of 200 eggs in her lifetime.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1199 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/trecoop.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/trecoop-psylla02.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"100%\" srcset=\"https:\/\/trecoop.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/trecoop-psylla02.jpg 512w, https:\/\/trecoop.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/trecoop-psylla02-300x233.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 512px) 100vw, 512px\" \/> Hibernating female psylla<\/p>\n<p>To monitor the population during this stage of its development, we perform frappage, in which 40 trees are shaken 40 times, after which we record the stage of development the females have reached. We also perform a visual search on 40 fruit spurs (flowering organs) for evidence of egg-laying.<\/p>\n<p>These measures provide us with information we can then use to apply treatments to dissuade the insects from laying eggs on farms where such treatments are effective. It also enables us to predict when the first nymphs will start to hatch.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Bibliography<\/strong><\/em>:<\/p>\n<p><em>Peral. Control integrado de plagas y enfermedades.
