Abstract/Contents:"Rhodesgrass scale (Antonina graminis Maskell) is an important pest of turfgrass in many southern states of the U.S. Because of the positioning of the adults and the waxy coating of nymphal and adult stages, they are very difficult to control with insecticides. Excellent control of rhodesgrass scale in Sunturf bermudagrass (Cyndon magennissii Hurcombe) was obtained with Akton, diazinon, chlorpyrifos and leptophos. Ortho Dibrom Lawn Insect Spray was generally less effective than other materals."
