综述了巴布亚新几内亚自50年代末至1979年对某些作物害虫的生物防治。根据受影响的作物来考虑害虫，包括椰子、柑橘、可可、咖啡、豆类、水稻、甘蔗、高粱、十字花科蔬菜和林木。简要介绍了每种害虫在巴布亚新几内亚的分布及其造成的危害。潜在的生物控制剂进行了讨论，参考任何过去的介绍和一些意见，可能的未来使用的影响。对一些杂草，特别是马缨丹（Lantana camara L.）和Salvinia（Salvinia molesta Mitchell），巨型蜗牛（Achatina fulica hammilei Bowditch），以及牛粪也被考虑。
Abstract The biological control of some insect crop pests in Papua New Guinea from the late 1950s to 1979 is reviewed. The pests are considered according to the crops affected, which include coconut, citrus, cocoa, coffee, legumes, rice, sugarcane, grain sorghum, cruciferous vegetables and forest trees. The distribution in Papua New Guinea of each pest and the damage it causes are briefly described. Potential biological control agents are discussed with reference to the effects of any past introductions and some comments on possible future use. The biological control of some weed species, in particular lantana (Lantana camara L.) and salvinia (Salvinia molesta Mitchell), the giant snail (Achatina fulica hammilei Bowditch), and cattle dung is also considered.
