Description
Eulecanium tiliae (Linnaeus, 1758)
Borg (1932) stated that this species (as Eulecanium coryli (Linnaeus)) had been “long known to exist on the Peartree in most gardens and groves where this fruit tree is grown, but is far from common, except in very sheltered situations”. No Maltese specimens have been seen during the present work.
