But the question comes in the tea planters’ mind whether there is any adverse effect of such traps on the natural enemy complex of tea pest. In view of this, the present study was undertaken in organically managed tea garden of Meghalaya having higher diversity and density of natural enemies. The study revealed that there is no negative impact on natural enemy population concerning the use of yellow sticky traps. In addition a clear picture was received on type of arthropods trapped in the sticky traps. Key words: Yellow sticky trap North East India Tea plantation Pest Natural enemy INTRODUCTION submarginata), scale insects and mealy bugs are recognized as minor pests which may also adversely India is the second largest black tea producer in the affect the production of tea bushes [3-5]. The minor status world. North East India contributes more than 60% of the of several pests is due to the action of the natural enemies gross national tea production.

  • Insect Pests, Part B
    9.2.4 Thrips Vietnamese name: Bä c¸nh t¬ Scientific names: Heliothrips haemorrhoidalis, Mycterothrips setiventris, Scirtothrips bispinosus, or Scirtothrips dorsalis (Order Thysanoptera, Family Thripidae). Several of these species may be present at the same time. Other species of thrips sometimes are found on tea. During the recent five years, thrips has become a very big problem for the tea growing locations in Bac Can and Thai Nguyen. Even a few thrips feeding on a bud can lower the quality of the bud, making the dried buds brittle (easy to break) and making the processed tea bitter with a yellow liquor (tea water). Description and Behavior Thrips hide from light, and are concentrated inside folded buds, inside flowers, or on the undersides of the youngest leaves. They are very small, narrow insects shaped like tiny grains of rice (see drawing and picture). Because they are so small, you may see only the damage they cause (see “Plant damage and plant tolerance”, below). The adult thrips is about 0.5 - 1.2 mm long, and is just barely visible with the unaided eye. They range in colour from pale brownish-red to flesh-colour to pale green-yellow. Many do not have wings. When present, the wings are very small and transparent, and are composed of many small light hairs. Nymphs look like small adults with no wings. Eggs are so small that you probably will not be able to see them. Thrips walk very slowly, although they can fly from plant to plant fairly quickly. Life cycle The eggs are inserted singly into the leaf tissue, usually next to a vein.

  • 2. Review of Literature
    2. REVIEW OF LITERATURE 2.1 TEA CROP AND ITS PESTS Tea plants have a rhythmic growth pattern, dormancy and flush, coinciding with either management practice or environmental conditions or a combination of both (Manivel 1980). The permanent leaves below the plucking surface are known as maintenance foliage. These maintenance foliage produce photosynthates which are supplied to other parts of a plant, which respire and grow actively with the help of these photosynthates (Kabir 2001). The fresh flush above the maintenance leaves are harvested for tea manufacturing. As mentioned earlier, tea bushes being a monoculture provide habitat for 1031 arthropod species and 82 nematodes species over the world (Chen and Chen 1989). In Asia, tea is affected by a total of 230 species of insects and mites (Muraleedharan 1992). However, Hazarika et al. (1994) reported that in NE India, 173 arthropods and 16 nematodes are considered as pests of tea. Among them few important pest species from plantations of NE India are: a. Sucking insects: Tea green leaf hooper (Emposca flavescens) (Homoptera: Cicadellidae); Tea aphids (Toxoptera auranti) (Homoptera: Aphididae); Tea Mosquito bug (Helopeltis theivora) (Heteroptera: Miridae); Thrips (Taeniothrips setiventris) (Thysanoptera: Thripidae); Scale insects (Lacenium uride) (Hemiptera: Coccidae) b. Borers: Red borer (Zeuzera coffeae) (Lepidoptera: Cossidae); Shot hole borer (Xyleborus fornicates) (Coleoptera: Scolytidae) c. Root feeders: Root grub (Holotricha impressa) (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae); Termites [Odontotermes obesus, O. parvidens, Nasutitermes sp., Microtermes obesi, 18 Euhamitermes lighti, Synhamitermes quadriceps, Pericapritermes assamensis, Malaysiocapritermes holmgrenii and Heterotermes indicola] (Blatodea: Termitidae) d. Non-insect arthropods (Mites): Red spider mites (Oligonychus coffeae) (Acari: Tetranychidae), Scarlet mite (Brevipalpus californicus) (Acari: Tenuipalpidae), Purple mite (Calacarus carinatus) (Acari: Eriophyidae) e.

    (ResuCts and discussion V. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION 5.1. POPULATION DYNAMICS Population dynamics of three sucking Insect-pests of tea, common thrips, greenfly and tea aphid were studied from 1999 to 2001 on two different planting materials of tea namely China seed jat and clone T 78. The study was conducted at two different sites at mid and high elevations in Darjeeling. Observations were made separately under two different conditions, with and without pest control measures. The data obtained (Appendix 1 to IV) were statistically analyzed wherever applicable and discussed. 5.1.1. COMMON THRIPS - Mycterothrips setiventris bagnall 5.1.1.1.

It is described for the first time based on male and female genitalia. Biology of this predator was studied on Corcyra cephalonica larvae. Egg incubation period was 14.3 ± 0.4 days. Five nymphal instars were developed in a period of 33–36 days. Feeding efficacy of different instars of E. concinna was evaluated on third instar tea looper, Biston suppressaria. Results showed fourth and fifth instars of E. concinna attacked faster on B. suppressaria. The study describes E. concinna as a potential predator of various lepidopteran pests in tea plantations and a promising candidate for biological control of looper pests.
