VERMA Department of Entomology and Apiculture, Dr Y S Parmar University of Horticulture and Forestry, Nauni, Solan (HP) India 173 230 * Corresponding author E mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT: The species diversity of parasitoids of the serpentine leaf miner, Liriomyza trifolii (Burgess) in tomato ecosystem was conducted under mid hill conditions of Himachal Pradesh during 2008-2010. The tomato leaves were collected periodically from June to September from three strata i.e. bottom, middle and top portion of the plants at random. During the course of study four species of larval parasitoids viz., Neochrysocharis formosa (Westwood), Diglyphus sp., Asecodes sp. and Chrysocharis sp. belonging to the family Eulophidae and one species of larval-pupal parasitoid, Opius sp. belonging to the family Braconidae were identified. These parasitoids were active throughout the cropping season and the parasitization ranged from 6.0 – 21.1, 19.4 – 28.6 and 13.6 – 23.1 per cent during 2008, 2009 and 2010, respectively. It was maximum (20.1 – 28.6%) during the month of August. Marginally higher parasitization (14.3 – 26.7%) was observed in the middle stratum of the foliage than in top (11.1 – 24.0%) or bottom (6.7 – 20.0%) stratum during all the three years of study. Among the larval parasitoids, N.

Given the substantial economic losses associated with various aspects of Liriomyza feeding as well as the ability of these insects to rapidly develop resistance to insecticides, researchers from many countries have attempted to use bio- logical control to manage these pests.

  • Pest Categorisation of Liriomyza Bryoniae
    SCIENTIFIC OPINION ADOPTED: 30 January 2020 doi: 10.2903/j.efsa.2020.6038 Pest categorisation of Liriomyza bryoniae EFSA Panel on Plant Health (PLH), Claude Bragard, Katharina Dehnen-Schmutz, Francesco Di Serio, Paolo Gonthier, Marie-Agnes Jacques, Josep Anton Jaques Miret, Annemarie Fejer Justesen, Christer Sven Magnusson, Panagiotis Milonas, Juan A Navas-Cortes, Stephen Parnell, Roel Potting, Philippe Lucien Reignault, Hans-Hermann Thulke, Wopke Van der Werf, Antonio Vicent Civera, Jonathan Yuen, Lucia Zappala, Ewelina Czwienczek, Franz Streissl and Alan MacLeod Abstract The EFSA Panel on Plant Health performed a pest categorisation of Liriomyza bryoniae (Diptera: Agromyzidae) for the EU. L. bryoniae (the tomato leaf miner; EPPO code: LIRIBO) is a polyphagous Palaearctic species which probably originates from southern Europe, where it occurs commonly outdoors and has now spread to many parts of central and northern Europe, where it is only found in greenhouses. The species is also reported in North Africa and in several countries in Asia. L. bryoniae can have multiple overlapping generations per year. Eggs are inserted in the leaves of host plants. Three larval instars feed internally within leaves and stems of field vegetables. Pupation generally takes place in the soil and very occasionally on the upper or lower surfaces of the leaves. L. bryoniae is regulated in the EU by Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2019/2072 (Annex III) in specific protected zones only (the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland in the United Kingdom). However, L. bryoniae is not specifically mentioned in any of the annexes of Commission Implementing Regulation 2019/2072 concerning controls regarding certain protected zones.

    Berita Biologi 8(4a) - Mei 2007 - Edisi Khusus "Memperingati 300 Tahun Carolus Linnaeus " (23 Mei 1707 - 23 Mei 2007) DIVERSITY OF THE PARASITOID WASPS OF THE EULOPHTD SUBFAMILY EULOPHINAE (INSECTA: HYMENOPTERA, EULOPHIDAE) OF JAVA, INDONESIA AND THEIR DISTRIBUTION Rosichon Ubaidillah Museum Zoologicum Bogoriense, Research Center for Biology Indonesian Institute of Sciences (LIPI) Jl Ray a Jakarta-Bogor Km 46, Cibinong 1691, Bogor, Indonesia ABSTRACT Diversity of the Parasitoid Wasps of the Eulophid Subfamily Eulophinae (Insecta: Hymenoptera, Eulophidae) of Java, Indonesia and their distribution is presented for the first time. Most of eulophines are ectoparasitoids that attack concealed hosts in protected situations, such as leafminers, woodborers and leaf rollers. The subfamily are frequently involved in biological control programs directed against dipteran and lepidopteran leaf-mining pests, and many eulophine genera have been considered economically important. The taxonomy and distribution of the species in Asia, especially in Java, are however still poorly studied despite the fact that the subfamily is an important group for sustainable agriculture. This study is based on the specimens newly collected from many localities in Java and Bali using sweep netting, Malaise trapping, yellow-pan trapping and rearing from their hosts. All the three tribes (Elasmini, Cirrospilini and Eulophini) of the subfamily Eulophinae are recognized in the islands. A single genus of Elamini, three genera of Cirrospilini and 19 genera of Eulophini are recognized in the islands and they included 14 genera as new records for the islands and 66 undescribed species. A total of 110 species are recognized in Java and Bali; of those about 86% are new records for the islands and about 60% are undescribed species.

    Doi et al. ___________________________________________________________________________ Session 11: Augmentative Biological Control in Greenhouses PARASITOIDS OF CHROMATOMYIA HORTICOLA (GOUREAU) (DIPTERA: AGROMYZIDAE) ON GARDEN PEA IN JAPAN Makoto DOI, Yosuke TAGAMI, Shuji KANEKO, Keitaro SUGIYAMA, Haruki KATAYAMA, and Tsutomu SAITO Shizuoka Agricultural Experiment Station 678-1 Tomigaoka Toyoda, Iwata, Shizuoka 438-0803, Japan [email protected] The leafminer, Chromatomyia horticola, which infests garden pea, is exposed to various para- sitoids. We studied the biological control of Liriomyza leafminer species, especially L. sativae Blanchard and L. trifolii (Burgess) (Diptera: Agromyzidae), on glasshouse tomatoes using parasitoid complexes from C. horticola. Garden pea and tomato plants were collected in Shizuoka Prefecture, Japan, between April and May 2004. The numbers and species of leafminers and the parasitoids emerging from them were determined. Species of leafminers and parasitoids. Liriomyza sativae, L. trifolii, and L. bryoniae 70 (Kaltenbach) were collected from tomato plants, whereas C. horticola was mainly col- lected from the garden pea. Liriomyza leafminers were very rare on garden peas and their occurrence was limited to summer. The predominant parasitoids on the garden pea were Diglyphus isaea (50.5%), Chrysocaris pentheus (25.6%), Neochrysocaris formosa (10.8%), and C. pubicornis (7.5%) (Hymenoptera: Eulophidae). The former three para- sitoid species were also frequently collected from tomato plants, suggesting that parasi- toids of C. horticola also commonly parasitize Liriomyza leafminers. Emergence of parasitoids. About 15 parasitoids emerged per 10 leaves. Ninety percent of parasitoids had emerged from garden peas on the 24th, 18th, and 15th day at 20°C, 25°C and 15°C, respectively (Table 1).
