This Pest, Is Also Known In Some Countries As The Green Vegetable Bug. It Occurs Throughout The Americas, In Various Pacific Islands, Japan, Australia, New Zealand, And Africa. First Seen In Hawaii In 1961 On Oahu, It Has Spread To All Major Islands. The Bugs Feed By Piercing Plant Tissue With Needle-like Stylets. The Actual Feeding Puncture Is Not Immediately Visible. Adults And Nearly All Nymphal Stages (2nd To 5th Nymphal Stages) Feed On A Variety Of Plant Tissue. Succulent Parts Of The Plant And The Developing Flowers Or Fruit Are Preferred. Feeding Injury Becomes Visible Sometime After Actual Feeding. Feeding On Flower Buds Results In Premature Abscission. Feeding Injury On Leguminous Pods Results In Seed Damage And Ultimately Distorted Development Of The Pods. Nymphal And Adult Feeding On Macadamia Nuts Often Results In Spotting Or Pitting Of The Kernels And Premature Abscission.
