The information provided in this document is the result of a two-year study to document insects and insect-transmitted diseases that may have to be considered as pests to this potential crop for Florida (Figure 1). This list of plant and insect feeders will also serve as a reference to help growers, scouts and home gardeners determine which insects they may find on faba beans. This document is ENY-703, one of a series of the Entomology and Nematology Department, Florida Cooperative Extension Service, Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences, University of Florida.
