Ash whitefly

The adult Ash Whitefly is a pale whitish whitefly with slightly mottled wings. The winged adults flutter around like tiny moths when disturbed. They are very similar to many other different species of whitefly. Ash Whitefly pupae have a white body with greyish bands. The nymphs go through several stages of development with the fourth stage nymphs having a distinct border of spines round their perimeter tipped with balls of white waxy material. The pupae are small and immobile found in clusters on the underside of leaves of the host plant.
