Brassica Whitefly
Aleyrodes proletella
Adult brassica whiteflies inhabit gardens, crop fields, and wild brassica patches, usually resting beneath leaves. They fly readily when disturbed and feed on phloem sap with piercing mouthparts. The powdery white wings are coated in wax, giving the insect its characteristic pale appearance.
