Horticultural and extensive crops in the states of Aguascalientes, Durango and Zacatecas, located in northern central Mexico are susceptible to being infected with viruses transmitted by the sweet potato whitefly Bemisia tabaci Genn. (SPWF). SPWF populations can coexist in this region with another species, the greenhouse whitefly (Trialeurodes vaporariorum Westwood) (GHWF), the objective of the work was to confirm the presence of SPWF and GHWF in commercial plots of horticultural and extensive crops and areas of Undergrowth in northern central Mexico. During 2017, variable amounts of whitefly were collected in randomly selected plots of chili, beans, tomatoes, melons, watermelons and a patch of weeds. In most of the sampled plots populations of SPWF and GHWF coexist, although the number of GHWF was generally higher than that of SPWF.
