Titre: Status of research on control of the RPW

Résumé: The unwanted spread of the Red Palm Weevil (RPW) in Egypt ended a long time of relative absence of deadly palm pest on the shore of Mediterranean Sea. Because of its bio-ethology the RPW benefits either the date and coconut palm monoculture or the Canary palm stipe morphology. Both factors promote the weevil population outbreak and heavy palm infestations, consequently. The substantial damages due to RPW infestation elicited control strategies chosen disharmoniously by each single Country Authority; nevertheless, it was impossible to stop the diffusion of the pest with the subsequent palms death and cutting down. Four techniques can concur to the RPW IPM control strategy on the basis of the pest damage/action threshold and environmental safety evaluation. Namely they are: RPW ¬infested palm felling and disposal, preventive tree injection, tree surgery and mass trapping. Similarities or diversity in social and political opportunities, site ecosystem, host palm species, growing pattern and use will bias the prevalence for onec control technique over the others into IPM against Rhynchophorus ferrugineus (Olivier 1790).
