Other claims from this paper (13)

Mechanism Amblypelta cocophaga China causes premature coconut nutfall.
Observation Several Amblypelta species occur across Melanesia, Northern Australia, and Indonesia.
Association Amblypelta cocophaga cocophaga is associated with severe premature coconut nutfall.
Association Amblypelta cocophaga malaitensis is associated with severe premature coconut nutfall.
