“…Variability between generations for OM has been observed also in Turkey (Kumral et al ., 2005) as well as for other species such as Platynota idaeusalis (Walker), Argyrotaenia velutinana (Walker) and Lobesia botrana (Rock et al , 1993; Milonas et al , 2001). The results suggest that for OM, timing for these flight activities is related to host tree phenology.…”

Prays oleae Bern, (OM) and Palpita unionalis Hüb., (JM) are two of the most important pests in olive groves in Egypt. A 3‐year monitoring study using sex pheromone traps in semi‐arid and arid olive groves was performed. In the semi‐arid grove, flight pattern of the OM was the same as in other Mediterranean countries, but in dates concordating plant phenology. The moth completes three generations annually: the first flight is in March to April, the second is in May to June and the third occurs in August to October. In the arid olive grove, an interesting flight pattern was observed. First flight was always very close or overlapped with the second one with no male catches during August to October. However, eggs were present most of the season, indicating unusually high female presence and oviposition activity of the OM during the absence of males in the traps. Generally, moth densities were significantly lower in low fruiting years than in higher ones and were also lower in the arid olive grove than in the semi‐arid one. In contrast, JM males were present all season, exhibiting six to seven and three to four overlapping flight peaks in arid and semi‐arid olive groves, respectively. Moth densities were significantly higher in the arid olive grove than those in the semi‐arid one. This study shows that trapping location and fruit bearing year are characteristics that strongly affect the grove‐specific information needed to estimate correctly adult emergence and thus the timing of control measures.

This study aimed at elaborating a forecasting tool of the phenology of the serious pest Lobesia botrana in Southwestern Spanish vineyards, by analysing data on male catches in sex pheromone traps recorded over a 12‐year period. Our data confirmed the minor importance of the first generation which appears during flowering time, both in terms of male trap catches and damage of L. botrana to the inflorescences. Therefore, data related to the first flight were not further processed, although they were considered for the computation of degree‐days of the following generations. The outcome of the elaboration of temperature accumulations and data on male captures for the second and third flights was a statistically acceptable linear behaviour obtained by properly transforming the variables. The models established proved to be efficient and may represent a useful tool to improve the efficacy of integrated pest management strategies targeting L. botrana in the studied region.

“…In Europe, two distinct generations of L. botrana occur in Switzerland (Moraviea et al, 2006), although three or even four may occur in southern Europe (Bovey, 1966;Gabel & Mocko, 1984;Milonas et al, 2001;Roditakis & Karandinos, 2001). Martin-Vertedor et al (2010) found four and a half generations in western Spain with a partial fifth recorded during 2006.…”

“…The proper timing of conventional insecticides targeting adult flights is critical for effective control (Caffarelli & Vita, 1988;Oliva et al, 1999;Boselli & Scannavini, 2001) and several phenological models have been developed to forecast the flight of the different generations of adult moths (Gabel & Mocko, 1984;Caffarelli & Vita, 1988;Del Tío et al, 2001;Milonas et al, 2001;Moraviea et al, 2006;Gallardo et al, 2009;Gutierrez et al, 2012;Gilioli et al, 2016).…”

is the principal native pest of grape in the Palearctic region. In the present study, we assessed prospectively the relative abundance of the moth in Europe and the Mediterranean Basin using linked physiologically-based demographic models for grape and L. botrana. The model includes the effects of temperature, day-length and fruit stage on moth development rates, survival and fecundity. 2 Daily weather data for 1980-2010 were used to simulate the dynamics of grapevine and L. botrana in 4506 lattice cells across the region. Average grape yield and pupae per vine were used as metrics of favourability. The results were mapped using the grass Geographic Information System (http://grass.osgeo.org). 3 The model predicts a wide distribution for L. botrana with highest populations in warmer regions in a wide band along latitude 40 ∘ N. 4 The effects of climate warming on grapevine and L. botrana were explored using regional climate model projections based on the A1B scenario of an average +1.8 ∘ C warming during the period 2040-2050 compared with the base period (1960)(1961)(1962)(1963)(1964)(1965)(1966)(1967)(1968)(1969)(1970). Under climate change, grape yields increase northwards and with a higher elevation but decrease in hotter areas. Similarly, L. botrana levels increase in northern areas but decrease in the hot areas where summer temperatures approach its upper thermal limit.
