Nesoclutha declivata Homoptera Cicadellidae, vector of Digitaria Streak Virus (Geminivirus) in Vanuatu
A geminivirus, the Digitaria Streak Virus (DSV) affects #Digitaria sangtrinalis# in Vanuatu. As this plant exists in certain foci of coconut foliar decay (FD), a disease with which a circular single-stranded DNA is associated, the possibility of these two diseases having a common identity was considered. A study of the vectorial aspects of these two diseases has shown that #Myndus taffini# (Cixiidae) is a vector of coconut FD and that it does not transmit DSV. #Nesoclutha declivata# (Cicadellidae) transmits DSV on Digitaria.
