ECOLOGY AND POPULATION BIOLOGY Ovipositional Response of Indianmeal Moth (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae) to Size, Quality, and Number of Food Patches
Indianmeal moth, Plodia interpunctella (Hübner), is one of the most important pests in retail stores and processed food facilities, but little is known about its ovipositional response to varying sizes and qualities of food sources. In this study, we monitored oviposition for 48 hours divided into 16 consecutive 3-h intervals, and found that, on average, P. interpunctella females laid eggs 6.4 ...
متن کاملBiological control of Indianmeal moth (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae) on finished stored products using egg and larval parasitoids.
Biological control using hymenopteran parasitoids presents an attractive alternative to insecticides for reducing infestations and damage from the Indianmeal moth, Plodia interpunctella (Hübner) (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae), in retail and warehouse environments. We examined the potential for using combinations of the egg parasitoid Trichogramma deion Riley (Hymenoptera: Trichogrammatidae), and the ...

متن کاملSurvival of indianmeal moth and navel orangeworm (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae) at low temperatures.
Concerns over insect resistance, regulatory action, and the needs of organic processors have generated renewed interest in developing nonchemical alternative postharvest treatments to fumigants used on dried fruits and nuts. Low-temperature storage has been identified as one alternative for the Indianmeal moth, Plodia interpunctella (Hiibner), and navel orangeworm, Amyelois transitella (Walker)...
متن کاملHydroprene prolongs developmental time and increases mortality in wandering-phase Indianmeal moth (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae) larvae.
Wandering phase Indianmeal moth, Plodia interpunctella (Hübner), larvae were exposed to the label rate of hydroprene (1.9 x 10(-3) mg [AI] /cm2) sprayed on concreted petri dishes. Larvae were exposed for 1, 3, 6, 12, 18, 24, and 30 h and maintained at 16, 20, 24, 28, and 32 degrees C and 57% RH until adult emergence. Larval developmental time and mortality were significantly influenced by tempe...
