PUBLISHED RECORDS IN NEW CALEDONIA. — Intentionally introduced in 2003 and 2006 from Australia ( Brinon 2008).

OTHER RECORDS. — South America, Australia, southern Europe, southern Africa.

HOST- PLANTS IN NEW CALEDONIA. — Acanthocereus tetragonus .

NOTES. — This mealybug was introduced to attempt biological control of the invasive cactus A. tetragonus , but both 2003 and 2006 strains from Queensland did not survive ( Brinon 2008, Gatimel et al. 2010), so the species is considered still absent from New Caledonia.
