Abstract: Litchi stink bug is a major pest of litchi (Litchi chinensis Sonn) and native to tropical Asia which reduces the yield by 20-90% based on infestation. As litchi is one of the major sub-tropical fruit crops of Nepal, this pest has become a major challenging in attainment of the potential yield of litchi. The management of this pest on a long run in a sustainable way requires a clear understanding on identification as well as morphological characters, biology and life history of the pest. In this regard, this article attempts to review the works done till date on the taxonomy, biology, and management of the pest.
