Conteúdo: 	Pineapple fruit in Puerto Rico are effected by a condition known as "gummosis". This name is applied because gum exudes from certain places in the rind of the effected fruit, particularly around the base; holes and cavities develop later. Gummosis impairs the appearance of pineapple fruits to such an extent that heavy losses are caused to the fresh fruit and to the canning indudstry. A similar condition is reported in the literature from other countries and in all casese insects are incriminated. Previous work in Puerto Rico suggested a possible relationbetween the larva of a cosmopterygid moth, Batrachedra sp., and gummosis.
