Amyelois transitella, also known as the navel orangeworm, is a moth species whose larvae are notorious for infesting various fruits, particularly nuts and citrus. The larvae feed on the fruit or nut, causing direct damage and making the fruit more susceptible to fungal infections. This pest is economically significant in agriculture due to its impact on crop quality and yield. Integrated pest management strategies, including monitoring traps and biological controls, are used to manage A. transitella populations and reduce crop losses.
