Dr. Stansly served the agricultural industry as a member of the UF/IFAS SWFREC team for 32 years. Dr. Stansly’s work included research and extension on integrated management of pests affecting major crops grown in southwest Florida—with an emphasis on citrus and vegetables. He was dubbed “Phil Stansly: Psyllid Slayer” on the cover of Citrus Industry magazine’s February 2017 issue, which featured a story about his work to combat Huanglongbing (citrus greening disease), which is vectored and transmitted by the Asian citrus psyllid.
