“…Las trampas de cartón corrugado permitieron generar información de la dinámica poblacional de P. viburni en granado, la que no se encontraba disponible en el cultivo, posiblemente debido a la menor importancia de pseudocóccidos en otros lugares del mundo, donde hay otras plagas de mayor importancia que afectan al granado (Mohsenia, 2009;Özturk and Ulusoy, 2009;Balikai et al, 2011;Day et al, 2011), y porque en Chile el granado es un cultivo que se ha expandido recientemente, con pocos estudios más acabados de su condición fitosanitaria (Curkovic et al, 2015). Las observaciones relacionadas a la dinámica poblacional concuerdan con las realizadas en otros frutales de hoja caduca en Chile central: tres generaciones, una en primavera, otra en verano y la última en otoño; una primera generación que demora más tiempo que la segunda (Oyarzún, 2004), y una baja abundancia de individuos expuestos en invierno (Núñez, 2007;Mudavanhu, 2009).…”

RESUMENEl chanchito blanco (Pseudococcus viburni) es la principal plaga del granado (Punica granatum L.) en Chile, de manera que se requiere disponer de un sistema de seguimiento eficiente. Entre 2011 y 2013 se evaluaron cuatro métodos de seguimiento: cartón corrugado en troncos, cintas doble adhesivas en ramillas, revisión de frutos y revisión de follaje; el estudio se realizó en un huerto de granados, en la Región Metropolitana. El método más eficiente fue el cartón corrugado colocado alrededor de los troncos, a 120 cm de altura, que mostró migración de P. viburni desde los refugios invernales hacia el follaje desde septiembre, con capturas durante todo el año. Se evidenciaron tres generaciones (primavera, verano y otoño) anuales, aunque las poblaciones fueron bajas en el invierno. Hubo un incremento significativo de ninfas y hembras adultas en los cartones en abril-mayo (cosecha), atribuible a la emigración desde los frutos, que se parten naturalmente. En la revisión periódica de frutos se observó infestación en la cavidad calicinal desde el momento de la cuaja hasta la cosecha, encontrándose al momento de la cosecha más del 75% de los frutos infestados, a pesar del programa de insecticidas. El muestreo de follaje y de cintas doble adhesivas no fue efectivo para muestrear P. viburni. La infestación de las granadas no se correlacionó linealmente con los parámetros del fruto (peso o tamaño) ni con la densidad de pseudocóccidos en cartones, pero sí con el porcentaje de cartones infestados. Las variables climáticas no se correlacionaron significativamente con las densidades de chanchitos. Estos resultados servirán para definir mejor la oportunidad de aplicación de agroquímicos para el control de P. viburni en granados.Palabras clave: cavidad calicinal, infestación de frutos, trampas de cartón corrugado. ABSTRACTPseudococcus viburni is the main pomegranate pest in Chile, so an efficient monitoring system is required. Four monitoring methods were evaluated between 2011 and 2013 in a pomegranate orchard in the Metropolitan Region, Chile. The methods evaluated were: cardboards on trunks, doublesided tapes on branches, fruit sampling and foliage sampling. Cardboards placed on the trunk at 120 cm from the ground were the most efficient method, showing pseudococcid migration from overwintering sites to the foliage since the spring (September). Three annual generations (spring,

“…Climatic conditions and fruit availability can both strongly influence population abundance [ 8 , 30 , 31 ]. In most countries, the species is seasonal and populations are more abundant during the wet season [ 7 , 8 , 16 , 22 , 23 , 25 , 33 , 39 , 54 , 76 , 106 , 107 ]. The only cited exception is for Malaysia, where the species’ activity is greater during the dry season [ 30 , 31 ], but the concept of the dry season in an equatorial climate is relative.…”

When referring to fruit-piercing moths, the genus Eudocima, and more specifically Eudocima phalonia (Linneaus), is cited as a worldwide crop pest. Damages associated with this pest are substantial on more than 100 fruit species, wherever it is encountered. In New Caledonia, the once occasional pest has become a serious threat to the current fruit arboriculture. Particularly devastating during outbreak periods, it has become an urgent need to find a suitable solution able to support farmers in the ecological transition of our agricultural models. This review proposes a synthesis of the existing data and publications on E. phalonia, worldwide and especially in New Caledonia, with recent observations. The assessment of this knowledge and the dynamics of the species in the territory of New Caledonia provide key information for a better prospect of adapted solutions.

Experiments were carried out in the experimental farm belonging to Faculty of Agriculture, Mansoura University during the two successive years 2014 and 2015 to study the population abundance of mealybug species attacking pomegranate trees and their associated predatory insects. The seychelles fluted scale Icerya seychellarum (Westwood) recorded the highest peaks of abundance during the period of study and represented by 367 and 568 individuals/sample followed by the citrus mealybug Planococcus citri Risso which represented by 192 and 242 individuals, respectively. Meanwhile, the cottony-cushion scale Icerya purchasi (Maskell) recorded the lowest peaks of abundance during the two years of study and represented by 46 and 29 individuals followed by the Egyptian fluted mealybug Icerya aegyptiaca (Douglus) which represented by 58 and 98 individuals, respectively. Vidalia beetle Rodolia cardinalis (Mulsant) recorded the highest peaks during the two successive years and represented by 42 and 57 individuals followed by the green lacewing Chrysoperla carnea (Steph.) and represented by 32 and 29 individuals, respectively. Meanwhile, coccinellid predator Nephus includens (Kirsch) ranked last category, and represented by 12 and 16 insects in the two years, respectively. Statistical analysis between the four seasons for the mealybug species revealed that a highly significant differences during the two years. I. seychellarum recorded the highest average number 110.3 and 158.6 individuals/sample, followed by P. citri 74.2 and 87.9 individuals while I. purchasi came in the last category with an average of 9.4 and 6.0 individuals, during the two successive years, respectively. Regarding to the associated insect predators, R. cardinalis ranked the first category and represented by 60.6 and 69.4% followed by C. carnea 30.4 and 22.7 % while N. includens came in the last category with 9.0 and 7.9% during the two successive years, respectively. Predator-prey ratio was the best during the period from July tell December and ranged between 1: 4.7 and 1: 10.6 during the two years.
