  • PESTS of the COCONUT PALM Mi Pests and Diseases Are Particularly Important Among the Factors Which Limit Agricultural Production and Destroy Stored Products
    PESTS of the COCONUT PALM mi Pests and diseases are particularly important among the factors which limit agricultural production and destroy stored products. This publication concerns the pests of the coconut palm and is intended for the use of research workers, personnel of plant protection services and growers Descriptions are given for each pest (adult or early stages), with information on the economic importance of the species the type of damage caused, and the control measures which have been applied (with or without success) up to the present time. The text deals with 110 species of insects which attack the palm in the field; in addition there arc those that attack copra in storage, as well as the various pests that are not insects This is the first of a series of publications on the pests and diseases of economically importani plants and plant products, and is intended primarily to fill a gap in currently available entomological and phytopathological literature and so to assist developing countries.

Of the species recorded, with reference to their published distribution ranges, 11 species from five families appear to be new records for India, range extensions were noted for 130 species from 16 families, and 25 species from six families are endemic to India. The dominant families were Erebidae, Geometridae, Sphingidae and Crambidae. The highest number of moths were recorded from Malshej Ghat, Sanjay Gandhi National Park and Bheemashankar Wildlife Sanctuary. The highest species diversity was recorded from Sanjay Gandhi National Park. Amboli, Koyna Wildlife Sanctuary and Malshej Ghat showed a number of new records and seem to support interesting and endemic moth fauna.

    RIc. zool. Surv.lndia. 88 (3 & 4) : 299-334, 1991 ON LI'ITLE-KNOWN MOTHS OF TRIPURA, INDIA D. K. MANDAL and S. K. GHOSH Zoological SIUWY ofIndia, Calcutta- 53 IN1RODUCTION The paucity of knowledge existing till date on the fauna of Lepidoptera from the state of Tripura in North-East India gives the authors an opportunity to attempt on the present problem. Quite a series of surveys were earlier conducted by different explorers in almost all other states and territories of the North-Eastern Himalayas. Bu't the published account of Lepidoptera is far from complete from the hills and plains of Tripura or " Tipperah ", as earlier known under the " Proyince of Bengal" This is obviously due to the disadvantage of survey works caused by the prevalence of long range-cum-valley type of topography in the state concerned. The present work highlights the systematic account of4 7 species of moths together with their infra-specific variations, as and when observ~ under 43 genera in 15 families, being preceded by brief notes on other items of interest as mentioned in the text. Besides, two tables, one dealing with the data of local collections and the other, with those of their global distribution as per literature review, are also incorporated. The measurement of wing expanse, i.e,the tip-to-tip distance between fore wings of bilaterally spread specimens, is given in millimeters (mm). The classification is mainly followed sensu Hampson (IS92, 1894, 1895, 1896), but with subsequent modifications for the families as cited in the text All the material, which constitute new locality records for Tripum, have recently been collected by different parties from the Zoological Survey of India chiefly during the pre­ winter and winter seasons and, reposited at Z.

SINYAEV: A new genus and 2 new species of Lasiocampidae from Vietnam (Lepidoptera) 273 Colour plates 282 Preface The first contributions to the series “Moths of Vietnam” were published in April 1, 1997 as supplement 9 of Entomofauna. After a general introduction (by Alexander SCHINTLMEISTER), the families Micropterigidae (by Wolfram MEY), and Notodontidae 1 © Entomofauna Ansfelden/Austria; download unter www.biologiezentrum.at (by Alexander SCHINTLMEISTER) were monographically treated. The second part of contributions was published in April 30, 2000 as supplement 11 of Entomofauna and contained monographs of the notuid subfamily Camptolominae (by ZOLOTUHIN & WITT), of the Mirinidae (by ZOLOTUHIN & WITT), and Lasiocampidae (by ZOLOTUHIN & WITT). The first contributions of 1997 considered especially the fauna of Mt. Fan-si-pan. In the meanwhile, more material was received from different regions of Vietnam. Therefore, 12 years later, it is possible to give now much broader faunistic informations, though not all regions within Vietnam are equally studied. Outside the series, a review of the noctuid subfamilies Pantheinae and Acronictinae was published by SPEIDEL & KONONENKO (1998)1. The present supplement contains treatments of the families Pterophoridae (by Peter USTJUZHANIN and Vasily KOVTUNOVICH), Limacodidae (by Alexey V.
