Virgin Island Records of the Changa, Scapteriscus didactylus (Orthoptera: Gryllotalpidae)

Ivie MA and Nickle DA. 1986. Virgin Island Records of the Changa, Scapteriscus didactylus (Orthoptera: Gryllotalpidae). Florida Entomologist. 69(4):760-761

The distribution of introduced mole crickets in the United States, Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands was recently documented (Nickle and Castner 1984). Since then, additional data have become available on the species occurring on the various Virgin lslands. These islands are all small, and their isolated populations and limited ecological diversity would allow a degree of control over field studies. Therefore, information on the distribution of these economically important species on these islands may be important in offering potential pilot-study sites for biological control attempts.
