Abstract

Highlights: [•] We studied the potential of D. smithi as a biological control agent for M. calvescens. [•] We verified D. smithi has host-specificity and causes severe damage to M. calvescens. [•] Our studies suggest that D. smithi has potential to establish in Hawaii. [•] We suggested that D. smithi is a good biocontrol agent for M. calvescens. [•] D. smithi should be introduced in places where M. calvescens causes problems. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
