Survey of the Insect Pests from Some Orchards in the Middle of Iraq
1 Plant Archives Vol. 20, Supplement 2, 2020 pp. 4119-4125 e-ISSN:2581-6063 (online), ISSN:0972-5210 SURVEY OF THE INSECT PESTS FROM SOME ORCHARDS IN THE MIDDLE OF IRAQ Hanaa H. Al-Saffar and Razzaq Shalan Augul Iraq Natural History Research Center & Museum, University of Baghdad, Baghdad, Iraq. E-mails : [email protected], [email protected] Abstract This study designed at identifying insect pests that attack some trees and shrubs grown in the orchards in different regions, middle of Iraq. The investigation included date palm, citrus, pomegranate trees and grape shrubs. During the survey, 10 species were recorded on date palms (the most infested was Ommatissus lybicus de Bergevin, 1930, followed by Oryctes elegans Prell, 1914), four species on citrus (the most infested was Aonidiella orientalis (Newstead, 1894) followed by whitefly Trialeurodes vaporariorum (Westwood, 1856), one species only on pomegranate ( Aphis punicae Passerini, 1863), and one species Arboridia hussaini (Ghauri, 1963) on Grapes. Given the importance of date palm trees in Iraq, the most important insect pests present and recorded in previous studies have been summarized. Also, the synonyms of the species and their geographical distribution are provided. Keywords : Iraq, Orchards, Pests, Shrubs, Survey, Trees. Introduction pomegranates, figs and grapes randomly during the period from 1 st .March to 1 st .November.2019. There are many tools The orchards in the middle of Iraq are one of the most important by farmers due to the important crops they offer in used to collect the specimens that including: nets, aspirators, the local market, such as dates, citrus fruits, pomegranate, light traps, and also by direct method using the forceps. -

However, the experiment was conducted on biology of pomegranate fruit borer at the laboratory of Division of Entomology and Nematology, ICAR-Indian Institute of Horticultural Research, Hessaraghatta, Bengaluru during 2013-14. Biological studies revealed that gravid female lays shiny white eggs singly on the calyx of flowers or on young fruits. The incubation, larval, prepupal and pupal periods were 7.15 ± 0.10, 32.9 ± 2.38, 4.35 ± 0.12 and 10.25 ± 0.10 days respectively. The adult longevity of male and female was 8.26 ± 0.14 and 10.28 ± 0.20 days respectively. -

African Butterfly News, All Came from the ABRI Collection in Nairobi
SEPTEMBER 2019 EDITION: AFRICAN ABN 2019 - 5 (JULY AND AUGUST 2019) BUTTERFLY THE LEPIDOPTERISTS’ SOCIETY OF AFRICA NEWS LATEST NEWS Welcome to September’s newsletter! A reminder that this year’s LepSoc Africa Conference will be held in Knysna on Sat 16 and Sun 17 November. Please contact Dave Edge ([email protected]) to confirm your attendance. For those of you looking for accommodation in Knysna, Dave forwarded the flowing link: Places to stay in Knysna We have found, at recent LepSoc Africa Conferences, that presentation of the annual reports of various LSA officers takes up most, if not all, of the three-hours that have traditionally been allocated to the Annual General Meeting. At last year’s conference in Hermannsburg, there was dissatisfaction about the time available for general discussion among members present at the meeting. This year, we are going to do it differently! Using the approach that has been adopted by the Entomological Society of Southern Africa (Entsocsa), the reports of office bearers will be circulated to the entire LepSoc Africa membership at least two weeks before the AGM. At the AGM, a condensed summary of the various reports will be presented for ratification, following which there will be a brief discussion. Significant issues, that require resolution at the AGM, should be raised by LSA members prior to the meeting and the salient points submitted for discussion under Matters Arising. Missing Links… A few people pointed out that a couple of the links in July’s newsletter didn’t work. I’ve corrected this below: Colotis ungemachi Arnold Schultze Steve Collins noted that, in July’s newsletter, I’d correctly captioned a photo from Sudheer Kommana as Baliochila hildegarda, but that this species is not found in Ghana as I’d indicated. -

Biology of Anar Butterfly: Deudorix (Virachola) Isocrates Fabricus (Lepidoptera: Lycanidae) in Mid Hill of Himachal Pradesh
Biology of Anar butterfly: Deudorix (Virachola) isocrates Fabricus (Lepidoptera: Lycanidae) in mid hill of Himachal Pradesh ABSTRACT The studies on biology of fruit borer, Virachola isocrates Fabricius carried out under laboratory conditions revealed that gravid female lays shiny white eggs singly on the calyx of flowers or on young fruits and on leaves. The average incubation period was recorded to be of 8.66 ± 2.05 days. The developmental period of first, second, third, fourth and fifth instar was 2.66 ± 0.46, 3.33 ± 0.46, 3.66 ± 0.46, 3.33 ± 0.46 and 3.33 ± 0.46 days, respectively. The total larval period was found to be of 15.33 ± 6.94 days. Pupal stage found to be 15.33 ± 6.94 days). Total developmental period was completed within 40 ± 4.08 days through five larval instars on pomegranate. Keywords: Anar Butterfly, Biology, pomegranate 1. INTRODUCTION Pomegranate (Punica granatum L.) is one of the important commercial fruit crop of the tropical and sub-tropical regions of the world. In India, pomegranate is grown on 2, 34, 000 ha area with a production of 28, 45, 000 MT (Anonymous 2018). Due to the high economic returns being obtained with pomegranate, the area under pomegranate cultivation in Himachal Pradesh has increased to 2,847 hectares with a production of 3,215 MT (Anonymous 2019). In India, pomegranate is attacked by more than 45 insects (Butani, 1979) of which Pomegranate butterfly Deudorix (Virachola) isocrates is one the most obnoxious pest and has been reported to cause 40-90 per cent damage to pomegranate fruits (Atwal, 1986). -
