“…Peak emergence for the Þrst adult population typically occurs from mid-January to early April depending on latitude and elevation. A lower threshold temperature of 9.5ЊC is required for egg development and activity of all life stages, including adult ßight, whereas 40ЊC is the upper threshold temperature (Haugen and Stephen 1984, Webb and Berisford 1978.…”

“…For the Nantucket pine tip moth, a lower threshold of 9.5ЊC and an upper threshold of 33.5ЊC is used. The lower threshold corresponds to the minimal temperature required for adult ßight and egg development while the upper threshold represents the maximum temperature for successful egg development to occur (Haugen andStephen 1984, Gargiullo et al 1985). These threshold values and the daily maximum and minimum temperatures were transferred to a degree-day computation program (Degree-day Utility, University of California Statewide Integrated Pest Management [IPM] Program, Davis, CA), which uses single-sine intermediate cutoff computation methods (Seaver et al 1990).…”

“…Application dates were determined using a biophenometer (model T 151, Dataloggers, Logan, UT) to monitor the number of accumulated degree-days (ЊC). Temperature thresholds for degree-day accumulations were 9.5ЊC (lower) and 33.5ЊC (upper) (Haugen and Stephen 1984). Initial applications were made Ϸ75 DD (ЊC) after the beginning of each generation as determined by trapping male moths using a synthetic, commercially available tip moth sex pheromone in sticky wing-traps (Pherocon 1 C, Trece Inc., Salinas, CA).…”

Efficacy Tests and Determination of Optimal Spray Timing Values to Control Nantucket Pine Tip Moth (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae) Infestations

The Nantucket pine tip moth, Rhyaciona frustrana (Comstock), a common regeneration pest of loblolly pine, Pinus taeda L., has been shown to reduce tree volume yields through larval feeding. Chemical applications can be effective in protecting trees from the growth losses associated with this feeding, and optimum spray timing values are commonly used to reduce the number of necessary applications and to increase insecticide efficacy. Optimal spray timing values for the Georgia Piedmont were obtained for the following four insecticides available for use in loblolly pine plantations: permethrin (Pounce), lambda-cyhalothrin (Warrior T), spinosad (SpinTor 2 SC), and Bacillus thuringiensis variety kurstaki Berliner (Foray 48B). Optimal timing values were similar between the first and second generations for each of these compounds. All of the insecticides used in this study significantly reduced tip moth damage below the control treatment levels. Lambda-cyhalothrin was the most efficacious and had the longest spray timing window. B. thuringiensis was the least effective and had the shortest timing window. Spinosad and permethrin were similar in efficacy and spray timing values. This information is applicable to regions where there are three tip moth generations per year, as found in the southern Piedmont region and the coastal plain of Virginia and most of North Carolina.
