Images from the Esmat M. Hegazi at the University of Alexandria in Egypt

Many of you may be aware of our project to support the Southern Plant Diagnostic Network by finding images of current and potential pests. Since many of our pests are introduced from other countries, we have been looking abroad for people that may have some relevant images.

Esmat M. Hegazi at the University of Alexandria in Egypt has been very helpfull in helping us find some of the images we have been looking for. He has provided images of both Egyptian cottonworm (Spodoptera littoralis) and leopard moth (Zeuzera pyrina). You can see these on his author page at the following link:
