ABSTRACT

In this work there about 25 lepidopterous pest species belonging to seven families that recorded in Egypt and throughout the world as moderate or serious pests on vegetables and other crops of economic importance. The correct scientific names and the common names of the studied speen have been corrected and newly confirmed and updated. Host plant and distribution have been achieved.

INTRODUCTION Host plants: Chenopodiaceae plants i.e., table and sugar beet, chard beet, spinach beet, worm seed plant, orach, The updating of the scientific insect names and (Atriplex ), Amaranth ( Amaranthus ). their common or vernacular names is very important in any Geographical distribution: Cosmopolitan species of entomological work. It the first step to present the accurate worldwide distribution, including the Mediterranean and the updated scientific names for all entomological region, Canary Islands, most of Europe countries, Middle works i.e., survey of insect, breeding of insect and ecology, East, Iran, Southern Europe, Russia, Ukraine, Moldova, pest management and control program, agricultural Georgia & Turkmenistan, all Asia, Africa, Egypt, Palestine extension and training programs etc. The host plants and , Jordan, Iraq, Iran, Saudi Arabia. the geographical distribution have been recently renewing Pest status: The species acts as insect pest of all beet root and updated in that time the economic importance or pest leaves, buds, tubers of table and sugar beet, chard and status have been completely discussed. Some recent spinach in all region of Egypt. references have bee added.

The recent literatures have been added at Nigeria, Senegal, Tanzia, Tunisia, Uganda, Zambia, Cust the end of this work. Rica, Panama.
