Insects and mites that damage growing or stored crops by feeding on them, boring into them or spreading disease as they feed, including weevils, beetles, moths, aphids, whiteflies, locusts, fruit flies and spider mites. Belongs here: any arthropod pest of a crop, whatever its feeding stage or the plant part it attacks. Does not belong here: an arthropod pest of livestock or bees, grouped under Parasitic and External Diseases of Livestock or Apiculture Pests and Diseases, and a plant illness caused by a fungus, bacterium, virus or nematode rather than an insect or mite feeding directly, grouped under its own causal-agent heading below.
