Species Profile -- Asian Citrus Psyllid
USDA. NAL. National Invasive Species Information Center.
The Asian citrus psyllid is a pest that acts as a carrier or vector spreading Citrus Greening, a devastating disease of citrus trees. This bacterial disease is transmitted to healthy trees by the psyllid after it feeds on infected plant tissue.

Concern mounts as citrus pest threat increases (Nov 12, 2008)
California Farm Bureau Federation.
