Brassicogethes aeneus

Brassicogethes aeneus, also known as Meligethes aeneus, the pollen beetle, is a pest that affects oilseed crops, particularly canola. The larvae feed on pollen and developing seeds, causing significant damage to crop yields. M. aeneus is known for its ability to adapt to different environments and crop types. Integrated pest management strategies, including monitoring, using resistant crop varieties, and applying targeted insecticides, are used to manage M. aeneus populations and protect oilseed crops.
