The Parasites of the Coffee Leaf-Miners (Leucoptera spp.) in Africa

The coffee leaf-miners of the genus Leucoptera , Hübner, are serious pests of coffee wherever it is cultivated and they have often caused great anxiety to planters in many parts of the world. Leucoptera coffeella , Guér., is known from the West Indies, Central and South America, Central Africa, Madagascar, Réunion and Ceylon. Another species, L. daricella , Meyr., seems to be responsible for still more damage in Africa.
