    UDC 632.634.791.937 (477.75) © 2017 Checkered beetles moths (Lepidoptera: Gracillariidae) – hazardous phytophags of arboreal and shrubby plants of botanical gardens and plantings of Kiev M.

Fomina The purpose. To carry out probes on revealing and specification of species composition of checkered moths (Lepidoptera: Gracillariidae) in conditions of botanical gardens and plantings of Kiev. Methods. Standard methods of faunistic research in entomology, population ecology, and protection of plants. Results. It is determined that 24 kinds of checkered moths are eating 54 kinds of plants which are widely used for gardening in Kiev. For the first time the following kinds are revealed: Phyllonorycter issikii, Phyllonorycter platani, and Phyllonorycter emberizaepennella. At calculation of Palii-Kovnatski indexes they specified that in city plantings the dominant phytophags are Cameraria ohridella (94,11%), Phyllonorycter populifoliella (86,37%) and Gracillaria syringella (59,14%). They consider that in formation of the secondary areal of invasion kinds of checkered moths the great value has an areal of spread of the host-plant. Environmental analysis is carried out of checkered moths of family Gracillariidae which is spread in cities of the Europe and which are absent in fauna of cities of Ukraine. That has important theoretical and practical value for ecology, entomology and protection of plants against hazardous checkered moths. Conclusions. All the probed kinds of checkered moths by their trophic specialization may be distributed into polyphages (6 kinds), oligophages (14 kinds) and monophages (3 kinds).

A part of the shortage was met through imports. By the mid-1960s food shortage turned quite serious and imports also became very difficult. In the wake of this country embraced the strategy to attain self-sufficiency in food-grains production. The green revolution technology which became available during late 1960s helped the country to achieve breakthrough in productivity and production of staple food. In a few years India started experiencing higher growth in food grain production as compared to the growth in its population. This made the country self-sufficient in staple food production followed by surplus in cereals. After sufficient availability of rice and wheat the demand for food started diversifying towards fruits and vegetables which also offered higher incomes compared to food grains. At the same time growth rate and income from cereals came under stress due to various reasons. It was then considered appropriate to promote diversification towards fruits and vegetables for raising income of the producers and to match supply with the changes in demand. The scope of diversification towards horticultural crops varies across region.
