Chemical exclusion of predators with permethrin was used to test the effectiveness of the phytoseiid predator Amblyseius limonicus Garman and McGregor and a complex of minor predators in the biological control of tetranychid (Mononychellus spp., Tetranychus spp., and Oligonychus peruvianus McGreg...

Oviposition by the cassava hornworm,Erinnyis ello L., was quantified for upper (abaxial) and lower (adaxial) leaf surfaces of cassava in the department of Tolima, Colombia. Relative rates of egg parasitism byTelenomus sphingis Ashmead on the different leaf surfaces were determined and compared. A...

The parasitism, development, and thermal requirements of Trichogramma exiguum and Telenomus sphingis, common parasitoids of Erinnyis ello eggs, were studied. Life statistics were also determined for each specie and temp. (20, 25, and 30 degrees C for both species; for T. sphingis 32.5 degrees C w...

A Phenaccocus herreni Cox & Williams population studied in Colombia, S.A., across a complete cassava crop cycle did not exceed 81 mealybugs/plant. P. herreni densities in Colombia were highest in the dry season, as were levels of parasitism by the encyrtids Acerophagus coccois Smith and Epidinoca...

In order to determine the degree of parasitism of Erinnyis ello and E. alope eggs by Trichogramma and Telenomus under field conditions, 113 samples were collected, without determined dates, from Sept. 1978-March 1980, in Cruz das Almas, BA, Brazil, throughout the whole cassava cycle. Eggs were ta...

Approx 20 insects and mites were found attacking cassava in several regions of Colombia at different growth stagcs and seasons. Thrips (Frankliniella williamsi), gall midges (Cecidomyiidae) and whiteflies (Bemisia sp. and Trialeurodes sp.) were present in greater than 50 percent of the plantation...
