Résumé
First record of the mealybug Maconellicoccus hirsutus (Green) from Guadeloupe ; present state of this pest of crops in the French Caribbean (Hem., Pseudococcidae). Maconellicoccus hirsutus is recorded from Guadeloupe for the first time. The mealybug was accidentally introduced in the Caribbean recently (Grenada, Trinidad, St-Kitts, Nevis, St Marteen and St-Barthelemy). Brief informations on biology, damage and control of the pest are given. The introduction of the entomophagous Coccinellid Cryptolaemus montrouzieri and the parasitoid wasp Anagyrus kamali are recommended.
