“…On the other hand, results demonstrated that M. loreyi attacked both crops, maize and sorghum, and that the captures depended on the region and the crop. Similarly, Kara et al [55] reported that M. loreyi is a severe pest of gramineous crops that specifically reduced yields in maize plants. However, total numbers of captured adults in sorghum fields were less compared to the captured adults on maize.…”

Surveys were conducted during 2020 and 2021 to study the emerging lepidopteran pests inflicting cereals in Tunisia, with specific emphasis on maize and sorghum crops. A species was collected from traps placed in the Jendouba, Bizerte, Nabeul and Gabes regions. Thus, this study carried out first report on its identification, distribution, population density and damage. Results showed that M. loreyi was abundant in all prospected areas, with total adult captures reaching 4779 and 9499 moths on sorghum and maize, respectively, during 2020. Moreover, the mean infestation percentage reached its maximum during August at 31.05% and 20.69% for the Jendouba and Bizerte regions, respectively, while the highest infestations were observed in the Gabes and Nabeul regions during July, with respective mean values of 13.54% and 21.35%. In addition, results revealed that the highest pest incidence occurred in the Gabes region, with values of 11.1 ± 0.47 and 5.7 ± 0.48 during 2020 and 2021, respectively. Additionally, results pointed out that M. loreyi achieved two summer generations in the different localities of Tunisia. Overall, this study provides basic insights into the ecology and population biology of M. loreyi, which are required to establish an effective pest control program.

The fall webworm, Hyphantria cunea (Drury, 1773) (Lepidoptera, Erebidae), is one of the most important pests of forest trees in northern Iran. In order to identify the native parasitoids of this pest a survey was conducted in Guilan province, in 2019. The larvae and pupae of the fall webworm suspected being parasitized, were collected from different host trees and wood piles, and reared under laboratory conditions until the parasitoids emerged. This pest was found parasitized with five species of Hymenoptera, Brachymeria lasus (Walker, 1841) (Chalcididae), Chouioia cunea Yang, 1989 (Eulophidae), Psychophagus omnivorus (Walker, 1835) (Pteromalidae), Pimpla rufipes Brulle, 1846, Virgichneumon dumeticola (Gravenhorst, 1829) (Ichneumonidae), and four species of Diptera, Compsilura concinnata (Meigen, 1824), Exorista larvarum (Linnaeus, 1758), Pales sp. (Tachinidae), and Megaselia scalaris (Loew, 1866) (Phoridae). Among them six species (e.g., P. rufipes, V. dumeticola, B. lasus, E. larvarum, C. concinnata and Pales sp.) are newly reported as the parasitoids of H. cunea from Iran.

“…Landis and Menalled (1998) report that over 60 % of the alternative hosts of generalist parasitoids that control lepidopteran pests in maize, soybean, wheat and lucerne feed on trees and shrubs. However, a unequivocal quantification of this control is rather difficult as it is dependent not only on the host-pest relationship but also on the crop and the environment off-field (Genduso, 1979;Corbett and Rosenheim, 1996;Cãgan et al, 1999;Manachini, 2003;Kara et al, 2007). Other examples come from Rossetti et al (2013), who have explored, through experimental host exposure, remnant size and edge effects on parasitism levels, species richness and parasitoid community composition.…”

Scientific Opinion addressing the state of the science on risk assessment of plant protection products for non‐target arthropods

Following a request from the European Food Safety Authority, the Panel on Plant Protection Products and their Residues developed an opinion on the science to support the development of a risk assessment scheme of plant protection products for non-target arthropods. The current risk assessment scheme is reviewed, taking into consideration recent workshops and progress in science. Proposals are made for specific protection goals which aim to protect important ecosystem services such as food web support, pest control and biodiversity. In order to address recovery and source-sink population dynamics, conducting a landscape-level risk assessment is suggested. A new risk assessment scheme is suggested which integrates modelling approaches. The main exposure routes for non-target arthropods are identified and proposals are made on how to integrate them in the risk assessment. The appropriateness of the currently used vegetation distribution factor was investigated. It is proposed that new tests be included in order to address exposure via oral uptake of residues and uncertainties related to differences in species sensitivity. As the assessment of effects on biodiversity is not explicitly addressed under the existing guidance documents, appropriate risk assessment methodology needs to be developed. As such, expertise was needed in the different areas of terrestrial ecotoxicology, including non-target arthropods (NTAs). This scientific opinion has been written as a precursor to the guidance document on NTAs.The ESCORT 1 and ESCORT 2 workshops form the basis of current risk assessment methodology, which is focused on beneficial arthropods. In view of the above-mentioned EFSA mandate, the working group of the PPR panel reviewed the current risk assessment, identified NTA key drivers that sustain important ecosystem services in agricultural landscapes and developed specific protection goal options for in-field and off-field areas. A new risk assessment framework was suggested which integrates landscape-level assessments. As key drivers also include species with population ranges larger than the scale of a single field or off-field area, the working group identified the need to additionally study the impact of PPPs on NTAs at landscape level. The working group developed proposals for exposure assessment and testing of effects as well as a method to calibrate the lower tier risk assessments.The specific protection goals are closely linked to the temporal and spatial boundaries in the context of risk assessment. These boundaries relate to the protection goal (i.e. where is the community of interest?), the life history, behaviour and distribution of the identified key drivers and the route and distance covered by the emission coming from the in-field. It is necessary to make a distinction between the area designated for cultivation (= in-field) and the area surrounding a field (= off-field).The off-field can be either (semi-)natural habitat or simple structures (fence or a bare strip of land). In most cases, the off-fie...
