Abstract

Four species of the psylloid genus Trioza damage Persea americana in Central and South America; two of these species, T. aguacate and T. godoyae are described as new; an identification key is provided for the six Trioza species known to develop on Persea species in the New World. A review is given of the psylloid species associated with the plant family Lauraceae.
