Other Names Citrus pulp borer Lemon fruit borer Nephopterix sagittiferella Moore 1891:21 2.5. Diagnostic Notes **Identification is currently undergoing peer review as part of the National Diagnostic Protocols by SPHDS.** **Specimens were unable to be sourced for this diagnostic protocol. As specimens become available, photographic images will be added to protocol.** **Eggs** oval, dirty white, translucent with fine raised irregular networking, lay singly and in small irregular patches on the lower side of the fruit. Incubation period 5-6 days **Larvae** reddish yellow and turn dark green upon pupation. Initially, larvae are gregarious but then separate and burrow into the pulp and pith of fruit. As larvae increase in size they eat their way through the fruit and create holes used for ejecting refuse; larvae are fast moving and jump and twist when touched. The mature larva drops to the ground by silken threads and burrows into the soil at a depth of approximately 1-2 cm. It then constructs cells of agglutinated earth lined with white silk measuring 0.7 inch in length, 0.4 inch in breadth and 0.3 inch in depth. Larval period 9-17 days. Pupation in soil is between 9-11 days. Definitive characters that distinguish larval _C. sagittiferella _from other pyralids have not been clarified. However no other pyralid in SE Asia/Australasia is known to live in citrus fruits. Hence a pyralid larva in a citrus fruit is probably a good characteristic of this species. There is another lepidopteran citrus fruit borer, _Prays endocarpa_, which may be confused with _C sagittiferella_. However pyraloid larvae only have the following characters: two prespiracular setae on prothorax; crochets in a circle or penellipse (aquatic immatures have 2 rows); three subventral setae on abdominal segments 3 to 6 and sclerotized ring around base of seta SD1 on segment 8. **Citripestis sagittiferella Pyralidae** eggs dirty white; larvae, early instar reddish yellow, mature dark green; pupation in soil; adult, medium size, basally scaled proboscis, ocelli & chaetosema present, 1 frenulum bristle, triangular wings less fringed. **Prays endocarpa Yponomeutidae** eggs light green; larvae, early instar green, mature has red transverse bands; pupation on fruit, twig or leaf edge; adult, small size, unscaled proboscis, absent ocelli & chaetosema, 2 frenulum bristles, thin narrow wings heavily fringed. **Adults** ground colour of forewing yellowish-brown, veins black scaled, median band hardly marked at all; hindwing somewhat transparent, pale yellowish-grey to grey-brown; head brown; thorax grey-brown, tegulae yellowish-brown (Moore (1891), Kalshoven (1981) & Chong et al (1991). Distinctions between genera have not been evaluated. Genitalia comparisons will usually determine species. The antenna of males of _Citripestis_ is pectinate which will distinguish them from most other phycitine genera. Association with Rutaceae provides additional support for _Citripestis_. Definitive diagnosis of this species would rely on comparison of male or female genitalia with representative specimens or DNA analysis. &#9794 genitalia: transtilla not sclerotized; valva with a ventral row of sclerotized ridges; clasper absent; aedeagus without cornuti. Genitalic photographs to be included when specimens have been sourced. &#9792 genitalia: bursa and ductus bursae not sclerotized; signum absent; ductus seminalis from distal half of bursa (Roesler 1983). Translation by N. Kurucz. Genitalic photographs to be included when specimens have been sourced. **Coming soon - PBT link** 2.6. References Armstrong, K.

  • Pest Categorisation of Citripestis Sagittiferella
    SCIENTIFIC OPINION ADOPTED: 19 May 2021 doi: 10.2903/j.efsa.2021.6664 Pest categorisation of Citripestis sagittiferella EFSA Panel on Plant Health (PLH), Claude Bragard, Katharina Dehnen-Schmutz, Francesco Di Serio, Paolo Gonthier, Marie-Agnes Jacques, Josep Anton Jaques Miret, Annemarie Fejer Justesen, Christer Sven Magnusson, Panagiotis Milonas, Juan A Navas-Cortes, Stephen Parnell, Roel Potting, Philippe Lucien Reignault, Hans-Hermann Thulke, Wopke Van der Werf, Antonio Vicent Civera, Jonathan Yuen, Lucia Zappala, Chris Malumphy, Ewelina Czwienczek, Virag Kertesz, Andrea Maiorano and Alan MacLeod Abstract The EFSA Panel on Plant Health performed a pest categorisation of the citrus pulp borer, Citripestis sagittiferella (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae), for the EU. This oligophagous species, which feeds on Citrus spp., occurs in Southeast Asia, mostly in lowlands but can also be found up to 1,200 m above sea level. Adults oviposit on citrus fruit at any stage of the fruit development. Larvae feed in the fruit then abandon it to pupate in the soil within an earthen cocoon. C. sagittiferella is multivoltine in its native range. This species is not included in EU Commission Implementing Regulation 2019/2072. Potential entry pathways for C. sagittiferella, such as Citrus spp. plants for planting with foliage and soil/growing medium, and soil/growing medium by themselves can be considered as closed. The citrus fruit pathway remains open for countries where C. sagittiferella is known to occur. Indeed, this species was intercepted several times in the UK during the last decade. Hosts of C. sagittiferella are available (Citrus spp.) in the southern EU. The EU has climatic conditions that are also found in countries where C.

    INFESTATION OF POMELO FRUIT BORER Citripestis sagittiferella (Moore) (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae) IN VIETNAM AND THE EFFECT OF COMPACT FLUORESCENT LAMP AS A REPELLENT Le Quoc Dien1, Nguyen Thi Kim Thoa1, Nguyen Van Hoa1 , Nguyen Minh Chau1 and Nguyen Thi Thu Cuc2 1 Southern Horticultural Research Institute, Long Dinh, Chau Thanh, Tien Giang, Vietnam, Email: Dien72@ hotmail.com. 2 College of Agriculture & Applied Biology, Can Tho University, Can Tho city, Vietnam 1. INTRODUCTION Pomelo culture has significantly played a key role in the Mekong Delta economy The Mekong Delta accounted for about 85% of the Viet Nam citrus production (MARD, 2010). 2011, pomelo fruit borer Citripestis sagittiferella (Moore) has started spreading and causing severe damage across all planted areas in Mekong delta as Ben Tre, Tien Giang, Soc Trang, Vinh Long, Bac Lieu, Can Thơ city and spacial và specially on Hau Giang (PPD, 2013). This specices also has started spreading Indonesia, Philippines, Thai Land and Malaysia. Control fruit borer ? Insect parasite, Rhoptromeris sp. (Hymenoptera: Eucoilidae) plays an important role in the control of Citripestis sagittiferrella on lemon at University Pertanian Malaysia orchard. At 24% larval parasitism was estimated from larvae collelcted in the field. Field studies to evaluate the effectiveness of malathion 50 EC emulsifiable concentrate sprayed to trees at 0.1% a.i. active ingredient show that the percentage of fruits attacked was nuch more higher in the sprayed block than that of the unsprayed block (Hussein and Rahman (1981). Insect visual systems to find out about the abililty to detect objects, colours, movement, prey or conspecifics using the properties of light provides an incredible spatial advantage as critical information is collected and responded to from an extended scene.

Some cannot be differentiated at any life stage. Over the past decade, DNA barcoding has gained increasing adoption as a tool to both identify known species and to reveal cryptic taxa. Although there has not been a focused effort to develop a barcode library for them, reference sequences are now available for 77% of the 409 species of arthropods documented on major pest databases. Aside from developing the reference library needed to guide specimen identifications, past barcode studies have revealed that a significant fraction of arthropod pests are a complex of allied taxa.

  • Yponomeutidae Biosecurity Occurrence Background
    Prays nephelomima Yponomeutidae Ermine Moths Biosecurity BIOSECURITY ALERT This Family is of Biosecurity Concern Occurrence This family occurs in Australia. Background The Yponomeutidae is a relatively small family of around 400 named species; most are found in the tropics, and there are 50 known Australian species. Ermine moths are small to medium-sized and the species are diverse in morphology and biology. Caterpillars are diverse in lifestyle and include leaf-webbers, leaf skeletonisers, leafminers, needleminers and fruit borers. Some species are considered to be minor pests in agriculture, horticulture and forestry. Subfamilies Argyresthiinae Attevinae Praydinae Saridoscelinae Scythropiinae Yponomeutinae Short Description Caterpillars from this family are small at around 15 mm in length, maximum. They tend to be colourful, often with longitudinal stripes. They are leafminers but also attack flowers and bore into fruit and seeds. The caterpillars are not hairy, as they only have primary setae; although these can be relatively long (Fig. 1). They sometimes feed externally and may form communal webs with large amounts of silk (Fig. 2). Diagnosis Adapted from Dugdale et al. (1999) and Stehr et al. (1987) 1. Thoracic legs – the pretarsus or claw is unusually long and straight. In Yponomeutidae, but absent in the Argyresthiinae (Fig. 3). 2. Abdominal segments with SD2 absent. In Argyresthiinae. 3. A10 – excluding the suranal shield, with not more than nine setae on each side. In Argyresthiinae. 4. Prolegs a. Crochets i. multiserial circle. In Yponomeutinae. ii. uniserial. In Argyresthiinae.
