Population fluctuations of some important pests and natural enemies found in Oil-bearing rose (Rosa damascena Miller) production areas in Isparta province (Turkey)
Turkish Journal of Entomology 35 (4), 539-558
Abstract: This study was carried out during 2006-2007 in Isparta province, to determine harmful and beneficial species and to reveal important species in Oil-bearing rose production areas. In the study, population fluctuations of economically harmful species known as Tetranychus urticae Koch. (Acarina: Tetranychidae), Rhodococcus perrornatus Cockerell and Parrott (Hemiptera: Coccidae), Macrosiphum rosae (L.) (Hemiptera: Aphididae), Thrips meridionalis Priesner (Thysanoptera: Thripidae), Oxythyrea cinctella Schaum, Tropinota hirta Poda (Coleoptera: Cetoniidae), Perotis chlorana Castelnau and Gory (Coleoptera: Buprestidae), Rhynchites hungaricus Herbst (Coleoptera: Attelabidae), Cnaemidophorus rhododactyla (Denis and Schiffermüller) (Lepidoptera: Pterophoridae), Syrista parreyssii Spinola (Hymenoptera: Cephidae) and important natural enemies of these pests known as Anthribus fasciatus Forster (Coleoptera: Anthribidae), Adalia fasciatopunctata revelierei (Mulsant), Coccinella septempunctata (L.), Exochomus quadripustulatus (L.), Hippodamia variegata Goeze (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae) were determined. The results of this study demonstrate that R. perornatus and M. rosae are the two most economically harmful pests at the Oil-bearing rose orchards.
