RE: What I learnt this week 18: Three-eyed beetles, Graphene super-sieves, Fungicidal nemesis, Bacterial arms race & Banana resistance!
In Tunisia there is a kind of beetle that kills palm trees his name is "the red palm weevil". Indeed it lays these eggs in the heart of the palm tree and when the larvae births they eat the heart of the palm tree. Because of this insect, Tunisia has seen many of these palm trees die.
