      abstract = {The red palm weevil (RPW) Rhyncophorus ferrugineus, is a  serious pest of palms. RPW is native to Asia, but over the  last few decades it has spread to the Middle East, Africa,  and Europe, where it has caused major economic damage. This  pest was accidentally introduced to the Caribbean (Curacao  and Aruba) probably around 2008 through trade in ornamental  palms. In these localities, the pest has caused  considerable damage and death to several palm species, and  it now poses a serious threat to the rest of the region.  This paper provides a brief summary of the current  knowledge of the pest with particular reference to the  neotropics.},
