Extract

The distribution of the Sudan HALTICINAE is given, together with brief notes on the food-plants and habits where known, and a key to the species.

Some 39 species, within 19 genera, are known to occur. Many are of minor economic importance, but three can be ranked as major pests. These are the two cotton flea-beetles, Podagrica puncticollis Weise and P. pallida (Jacoby), and Phyllotreta cheiranthi Weise on cruciferous vegetables.
