Abstract
The insect vectors of coconut lethal yellowing have proved elusive. Long running studies in the Caribbean, central America and southern USA have implicated some species and made others more likely. Long running surveys in both east and west Africa have identified many planthoppers and some leafhoppers associated with palms. Occasionally some have shown positive for phytoplasmas. But even after such a long period of study are we little further in identifying the vectors and being able to use this information? This review will give an overview of the work carried out in the various regions where coconut lethal yellowing is found.
