Entomol. 97(3): 946Ð949 (2004) ABSTRACT Sex pheromone gland extracts of Argyrotaenia pomililiana Trematerra & Brown females contained seven 14-chain compounds, the Z and E isomers of 11-tetradecenyl acetate, 11-tetradecen- 1-ol, and 11-tetradecenal, respectively, together with tetradecyl acetate. In Þeld trapping tests, a 100:5 blend of Z11Ð14:Ac and Z11Ð14:Al was shown to be suitable for detection and monitoring of A. pomililiana. This species-speciÞc lure will facilitate the use of mating disruption against codling moth, Cydia pomonella (L.), in Argentine fruit orchards.

  • Regional Population Dynamics of Argyrotaenia Citrana in Northwest
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THIS OF Alan Lee Knight for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Entomology presented on April 3, 1986. Title: Regional Population Dynamics of-Argyrotaenia citrana in Northwest Caneberry: Phenology, Overwintering Survivorship, and Movement as Measured by Pheromone Traps and Larval Sampling. Redacted for Privacy Abstract approved: Developmental requirements were determined for both larva and pupa as 503 and 176 degree-days (dd) above a lower threshold of 5°C. Adult emergence occurred from 300 to 700 dd accumulated from January 1st. Cumulative male emergence preceded female's by 50- 80 dd. A PETE phenology model modified to include a temperature-dependent female activity function to regulate oviposition significantly improved prediction of egg hatch. Two pheromone trap catch peaks occurred in fields with overwintering populations. The first coincided with peak male emergence; as female emergence peaked, pheromone trap catches declined. The second peak occurred after 750 dd and varied in size with the first peak. The influence of female moth/pheromone trap competition on temporal patterns of trap catch was studied in a semi-enclosed courtyard. Three distinct periods of pheromone trap catch interpretation each bounded by a specific ratio of active males-to-calling females were seen. Two trap catch peaks typically occurred. Field sampling of overwintering populations, laboratory temperature bioassays, and controlled field experiments demonstrated that age-specific differences in cold hardiness exist among larval stages and correlation of historical winter temperatures with pheramone trap catch suggests winter severity is a major factor influencing the timing of spring emergence. A large grid of pheromone traps canbined with larval sampling were used to assess regional overwintering survivorship and seasonal movement patterns.

  • Five New Species of Argyrotaenia (Tortricidae: Archipini) from Mexico and the Southwestern United States
    Journal of the Lepidnpterists' Society .53(3), 1999. 114-125 FIVE NEW SPECIES OF ARGYROTAENIA (TORTRICIDAE: ARCHIPINI) FROM MEXICO AND THE SOUTHWESTERN UNITED STATES JOHN W. BROWN Systematic Entomology Laboratory, Plant Sciences Institute, Agricultural Research Service, U.S. Department of Agriculture c/o National Museum of Natural History, Washington, DC 20560-0168, U.S.A. (e-mail: [email protected]) AND ASHLEY CRAMER Department of Biology, University of New Mexico, Albuquerque, New Mexico 87131, U.S.A. ABSTRACT. Based on an examination of 187 specimens, five new species of Argyrotaenia are recognized from Mexico and the south­ western United States. A hypothesis of the phylogenetic relationships among the species is derived using Hennig86 to find the most paJ'simo­ nious solution to the distribution of 14 morpholOgical characters (5 characters of the forewing, 7 of the male genitalia, and 2 of the female gen­ italia). Argyrotaenia spinacallis Brown & Cramer, new species, from the State of Veracruz, A. unda Brown & Cramer, new species, from the states of Mexico and Morelos, and A. octavana Brown & Cramer, from the states of Puebla and Veracruz, appear to form a monophyletic group with A. ponera (Walsingham), from Puebla. The last is redescribed and illustrated. Although superficially similar, A. coconinana Brown & Cramer, new species, from Arizona and New Mexico, and A. bialbistriata Brown & Cramer, from Arizona (Cochise Co.) and Durango, Mexico, may not be members of the "ponera group" owing to their considerable divergence in male and female genitalia. Additional key words: phylogeny, ponera group, morphology, genitalia. With the exception of a single widespread Palaearc­ sonian Institution, Washington, DC.

  • Caterpillars on the Foliage of Conifers in the Northeastern United States 1 Life Cycles and Food Plants
    INTRODUCTION INTRODUCTION Coniferous forests are important features of the North American landscape. In the Northeast, balsam fir, spruces, or even pines may dominate in the more northern forests. Southward, conifers still may be prevalent, although the pines become increasingly important. In dry, sandy areas, such as Cape Cod of Massachusetts and the Pine Barrens of New Jersey, hard pines abound in forests composed of relatively small trees. Conifers are classic symbols of survival in harsh environments. Forests of conifers provide not only beautiful scenery, but also livelihood for people. Coniferous trees are a major source of lumber for the building industry. Their wood can be processed to make paper, packing material, wood chips, fence posts, and other products. Certain conifers are cultivated for landscape plants and, of course, Christmas trees. Trees of coniferous forests also supply shelter or food for many species of vertebrates, invertebrates, and even plants. Insects that call these forests home far outnumber other animals and plants. Because coniferous forests tend to be dominated by one to a few species of trees, they are especially susceptible to injury during outbreaks of insects such as the spruce budworm, Choristoneura fumiferana, the fall hemlock looper, Lambdina fiscellaria fiscellaria, or the pitch pine looper, Lambdina pellucidaria. Trees that are defoliated by insects suffer reduced growth and sometimes even death. Trees stressed by defoliation, drought, or mechanical injury, are generally more susceptible to attack by wood-boring beetles, diseases, and other organisms. These secondary pests also may kill trees. Stress or tree death can have a negative economic impact upon forest industries.

Devido ao seu sistema de produção ser grande parte em região tropical favorece o desenvolvimento de pragas de potencial impacto econômico, e difícil controle. Neste trabalho, é relatada a primeira ocorrência de Argyrotaenia sphaleropa (Meyrick, 1909) (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae), um inseto polífago, com hábito crepuscular e noturno, nativo da América do Sul, e comumente encontrada causando danos em frutíferas. Espécimes foram observadas no campo nas fases vegetativas e reprodutivas da cultura da soja no Mato Grosso, Brasil, em lavoura comercial na safra 2017/18 e 2018/19, causando desfolha e enrolamento dos folíolos jovens. As larvas foram coletadas e mantidas em laboratório sendo alimentados com folhas de soja para a identificação da espécie.
