Callosobruchus chinensis

No particular detection or inspection methods for Callosobruchus spp. have been developed.
The potential exists for the development of population monitoring by use of sex pheromones. The existence of a female sex pheromone in C. chinensis was demonstrated by Honda and Yamamoto (1976), and Gharib et al. (1992), but the pheromone is not commercially available (Phillips, 1994;Plarre, 1998).
