scenario ofgrapevine diseases: climate change, thenew strategies
to manage pests and diseases consequently to the revision of
pesticides regulations and the necessity to control emerging
diseases. In such regards, many cases ofvirus diseases have been
recently reported. Some ofthese viruses cause severe diseases on
grapevine and mealybugs are vectors ofsome ofthem. Hereby
different species of mealybugs that showed an increase in their
population and causing diseases are described, in particular those
belonging to Coccidae, Pseudococcidae and Diaspididae.
