The interventions were carried out by Prof. Alain Roques and by Dr. Teddy Urvois for INRAE, by Prof. Andrea Vannini and by Dr. Massimo Contarini, both of the University of Tuscia, by Dr. Daniele Guarneri, project manager.

The participation was wide and the participants, mainly experts in entomology, enlivened the debate with numerous questions and observations despite the “remote” mode of the meeting.
