Looper Caterpillar- a Threat to Tea and Its Management
Circular No. 132 September 2010 Looper Caterpillar- a Threat to Tea and its Management By Dr. Mainuddin Ahmed Chief Scientific Officer Department of Pest Management & Mohammad Shameem Al Mamun Scientific Officer Entomology Division BANGLADESH TEA RESEARCH INSTITUTE SRIMANGAL-3210, MOULVIBAZAR An Organ of BANGLADESH TEA BOARD 171-172, BAIZID BOSTAMI ROAD NASIRABAD, CHITTAGONG Foreword Tea plant is subjected to the attack of pests and diseases. Tea pests are localized in tea growing area. In tea, today one is a minor and tomorrow it may be a major pest. Generally Looper caterpillar is a minor pest of tea. Actually it is a major shade tree pest. But now-a-days it is a major pest of tea in some areas. Already some of the tea estates faced the problem arising out of this pest. Under favourable environmental conditions it becomes a serious pest of tea and can cause substantial crop loss. The circular has covered almost all aspects of the pest ornately with significant information, which will be practically useful in managing the caterpillar. Particular emphasis has been given on Mechanical control option as a component of IPM strategies. With timely adoption and implementation of highlighted information in this circular, planters will be able to manage the caterpillar more efficiently in a cost-effective, environment friendly and sustainable way. September 2010 Mukul Jyoti Dutta Director in-charge Looper Caterpillar- a Threat to Tea and its Management Introduction The looper caterpillar, Biston suppressaria Guen. is one of the major defoliating pests of tea plantation in North-East India, causing heavy crop losses. -

This update details 4 species new to the main list and 3 to Appendix A. Numerous taxonomic changes are incorporated and country distributions are updated. CENSUS The number of species now recorded from the British Isles stands at 2,558 of which 58 are thought to be extinct and in addition there are 191 adventive species.

Lepidoptera of a Raised Bog and Adjacent Forest in Lithuania
Eur. J. Entomol. 101: 63–67, 2004 ISSN 1210-5759 Lepidoptera of a raised bog and adjacent forest in Lithuania DALIUS DAPKUS Department of Zoology, Vilnius Pedagogical University, Studentų 39, LT–2004 Vilnius, Lithuania; e-mail: [email protected] Key words. Lepidoptera, tyrphobiontic and tyrphophilous species, communities, raised bog, wet forest, Lithuania Abstract. Studies on nocturnal Lepidoptera were carried out on the Laukėnai raised bog and the adjacent wet forest in 2001. Species composition and abundance were evaluated and compared. The species richness was much higher in the forest than at the bog. The core of each lepidopteran community was composed of 22 species with an abundance of higher than 1.0% of the total catch. Tyrpho- philous Hypenodes humidalis (22.0% of all individuals) and Nola aerugula (13.0%) were the dominant species in the raised bog community, while tyrphoneutral Pelosia muscerda (13.6%) and Eilema griseola (8.3%) were the most abundant species at the forest site. Five tyrphobiotic and nine tyrphophilous species made up 43.4% of the total catch on the bog, and three and seven species, respectively, at the forest site, where they made up 9.2% of all individuals. 59% of lepidopteran species recorded on the bog and 36% at the forest site were represented by less than five individuals. The species compositions of these communities showed a weak similarity. Habitat preferences of the tyrphobiontic and tyrphophilous species and dispersal of some of the species between the habi- tats are discussed. INTRODUCTION (1996).

Personality, Habitat Selection and Territoriality Kathleen Church A
Habitat Complexity and Behaviour: Personality, Habitat Selection and Territoriality Kathleen Church A Thesis In the Department of Biology Presented in Partial Fulfilment of the Requirements For the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Biology) at Concordia University Montréal, Québec, Canada July 2018 © Kathleen Church, 2018 iii Abstract Habitat complexity and behaviour: personality, habitat selection and territoriality Kathleen Church, Ph.D. Concordia University, 2018 Structurally complex habitats support high species diversity and promote ecosystem health and stability, however anthropogenic activity is causing natural forms of complexity to rapidly diminish. At the population level, reductions in complexity negatively affect densities of territorial species, as increased visual distance increases the territory size of individuals. Individual behaviour, including aggression, activity and boldness, is also altered by complexity, due to plastic behavioural responses to complexity, habitat selection by particular personality types, or both processes occurring simultaneously. This thesis explores the behavioural effects of habitat complexity in four chapters. The first chapter, a laboratory experiment based on the ideal free distribution, observes how convict cichlids (Amatitlania nigrofasciata) trade-off the higher foraging success obtainable in open habitats with the greater safety provided in complex habitats under overt predation threat. Dominants always preferred the complex habitat, forming ideal despotic distributions, while subordinates altered their habitat use in response to predation. The second chapter also employs the ideal free distribution to assess how convict cichlids within a dominance hierarchy trade-off between food monopolization and safety in the absence of a iv predator. Dominants again formed ideal despotic distributions in the complex habitat, while dominants with lower energetic states more strongly preferred the complex habitat. -
