Green lacewing, Pseudomallada astur (Banks) (Neuroptera: Chrysopidae) is a potential predator of the invasive rugose spiralling whitefly, Aleurodicus rugioperculatus Martin (Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae) infesting coconut palms. A meridic diet for its mass production was standardized. Highest fecundity (393 eggs), larval hatch (324.60 larvae), pupation (279.20 pupae), male longevity (23.25 days) and female longevity (59.62 days) of P. astur were recorded when reared on adult diet comprising honey, protein X, glucose, coconut pollen and yeast. In the laboratory, each P.astur larva fed on 705 and 996 eggs of Corcyra cephalonica and A. rugioperculatus in a period of 13.23 and 21.19 days, respectively. About 7.26 lakh and 17.76 lakh P.astur eggs were distributed to farmers during 2019 and 2020, respectively in East Godavari district, Andhra Pradesh, India to combat A. rugioperculatus. Field evaluation indicated significantly low population of A. rugioperculatus (19.96 nymphs) on coconut palms inoculated with P. astur eggs than un-released control palms (158.5 nymphs) on 28th day after inoculation and thus established successful predatory potential on rugose spiralling whitefly.

绿色草蛉，Pseudomallada astur (Banks) (Neuroptera: Chrysopidae) 是侵入椰子树的有皱纹的螺旋粉虱, Aleurodicus rugioperculatus Martin (半翅目: Aleyrodidae)的潜在捕食者。其大规模生产的经络饮食是标准化的。当以包含蜂蜜、蛋白质 X、蛋白质的成体饲料饲养时，记录了P. astur 的最高繁殖力（393 个卵）、幼虫孵化（324.60 个幼虫）、化蛹（279.20 个蛹）、雄性长寿（23.25 天）和雌性长寿（59.62 天）。葡萄糖、椰子花粉和酵母。在实验室中，每只P.astur幼虫分别以Corcyra cephalonica和A. rugioperculatus 的705 和 996 个卵为食分别在 13.23 天和 21.19 天的时间内。2019 年和 2020 年，分别在印度安得拉邦东戈达瓦里区向农民分发了约 72.6 万个和177.6万个P.astur鸡蛋，以对抗A. rugioperculatus。现场评估表明，在接种后第 28 天，接种了P. astur卵的椰子棕榈上的A. rugioperculatus（19.96 个若虫）数量明显低于未释放的对照棕榈（158.5 个若虫），因此在有皱纹的螺旋粉虱上建立了成功的捕食潜力。
