(Simmonds, 1987) Commonly grown in the humid tropical and subtropical regions. (Pillay and Tripalhi, 2007) Fourth world's most important food crop after rice, wheat and maize, with vast majority of the grown and consumed in the tropical and subtropical zones. (FA02002) ~U~\,[RST L_ ~ ntroduction Production is estimated at 98 million tons of which only 7 million tons enter the world market, suggesting that the crop is more important as food for local consumption than for export. (Robinson, 1996) U\HRST MALAYA L_ ntroduction ~ n Malaysia, banana is the second most widely cultivated fruit, covering about 26,000 ha with a total production of 530,000 metric tones. (Mukhtanxklin,2011) However, production is low compared with potential yield (Van Asten et al., 20(4) and has been declining (FAO, 2007). 1

The larvae bore in the conn, reducing nutrient uptake and weakening the stability of the plant. The weevil damage can result in reduced bunch weights, mat die-out and shortened stand life. Abera-Kalibata et al. (2008) 4

6 ~U:'i\'ERST MALAYA Disscusion Banana weevil is a difficult pest to work on. The adult is nocturnally active and seldom observed, while the immature stages may be deep within the banana corm. Gold et a. (2001) The effect of damage was greater on bunch weight than on plant growth and rate of development. Rukazambuga et at (1998) :UXlrERST MALAYA Rhabdoscelus obscurus has been only recorded in rian Jaya and Moluccas, mostly on sugar cane, coconuts and wild palms. (Chenon et al. 2001) t also found in the living tissues of bunches boring inside the peduncle, the rachis or even the spiklets and the fruits. &:;UX\'ERST. Disscusion This species attacks the stalks of healthy, damaged, or stressed sugarcane; the pseudostems of bananas; and the sheaths or stems of palms. (Giblin-Davis, 2001) &:;U X\'ERST MALAYA Disscusion.. This species is not known to vector any pathogens or associated organisms. However, organisms can invade tissues that have been damaged by R. obscurus including red rot, Colletotrichum falcatum, and other microbial decomposers. (CAB, 2002) U:'iHRST MALAYA L- ~ " Disscusion Odoiporus longicol/is is also considered a pest to banana. The adult weevils feed on living and decomposing banana leaf tissues, but eat little are not considered pests. Gold et al. (2002) Damage is done by the larval stage. The larvae attack the pseudostem and stem of banana plants, although they will occasionally feed within the rhizome. &:;U:'i\1RSJT MALAYA L- ~ Disscusion /:.-. \~).. Nacoleia octasema, the banana scab moth and the Erionota thrax, the palm redeye, banana skipper or banana leaf roller were not considered as major pest to the banana. The larvae of N. octasema feed on the skin of the banana fruit creating black scars that may greatly reduce their market value but do not normally affect yield. (EFSA, 2008) The larvae of E. thrax feed on leaves. (Okolle et a., 2006) 5
