“…In India, the kairomonal compounds of the most destructive lepidopteran insect pest of R. communis, such as S. litura, A. janata, and C. punctiferalis have been identified for trapping. In field experiment, water trap baited with phenyl acetaldehyde + 2-phenyl ethanol recorded significantly higher moth catches of S. litura (6.8 moths/trap/wk) and C. punctiferalis (5.8 moths/trap/wk) (Duraimurugan et al 2017). Recently, Duraimurugan and Alivelu (2018), determined the relationship of pheromone trap catches corresponding to the economic threshold level of 25 % defoliation of S. litura on R. communis, which was estimated to be 81.4 moths/trap/week.…”

Interest in bioenergetic crops, such as the castor oil plant Ricinus communis (Euphorbiaceae), for production of biodiesel has increased in recent years. In this paper, phytophagous arthropods, their natural enemies and floral visitors associated with this plant in the world are reviewed. Despite its insecticidal properties, arthropods have been reported feeding on R. communis plants. The arthropod pests of R. communis damage all parts of the plant, including the seeds, where some toxic compounds are even more concentrated. In the scientific databases, we found reports of 193 arthropods associated to R. communis in different parts of the world. This information obtained in the scientific databases was concentrated in a database and analyzed according to the coevolutive hypothesis, which allows us to predict that the greatest wealth and abundance of phytogenic arthropods is found in the center of origin by R. communis. According to this review, Achaea janata, Spodoptera litura, Edwardsiana flavescens, Liriomyza trifolii, L. sativae, Spilosoma obliqua, Cogenethes punctiferalis, Oxyrhachis taranda, and Helicoverpa armigera are the most devastating pests in Asia. In Africa, Agrotis ipsilon, S. exigua, Nezara viridula, Trialeurodes ricini, and Tetranychus urticae were mentioned as the most important. In Central and South-America, Phyllophaga sp., Agrietes sp., Erinnyis ello, N. viridula, Corythucha gossypii, Falconia antioquiana, and S. marima are reported as pests of economic importance. The most commonly reported natural enemies of some of these arthropod pests were species of Bacillus thuringiensis, B. cereus, B. popilliae, Trichogramma achaeae, T. chilonis, T. minutum, T. australicum, T. dendrolimi, T. pretiosum, T. evanescens, Microplitis rufiventris, M. maculipennis, M. ophiusae, Telenomus remus, T. proditor, Stethorus siphonulus and S. histrio. Apis mellifera is recorded as the main insect pollinator of R. communis. Pest management methods used against the arthropod pests of R. communis include biological, ethological, mechanical, cultural, genetic, and chemical control.

“…However, about half a dozen of them are of economic importance in India. Among them semilooper, L. (Lepidoptera : Noctuidae) is the most important pest in the rainfed castor belts of Southern India and is also known to occur regularly throughout the country wherever the crop is grown (Duraimurugan 2017).…”

The toxic effect of insecticides was evaluated by treating the parasitized eggs using an atomizer in the case of egg parasitoid, while topical bioassay and dry film residue method was used against pupal and adult stages of larval parasitoid, , respectively. The effect was categorized as per International Organisation for Biological Control Safety Classification.The toxicity of insecticides against revealed that Btk f o r m u l a t i o n s , f l u b e n d i a m i d e , chlorantraniliprole, indoxacarb and novaluron had lesser effect on adult emergence and categorized as harmless (< 30% mortality). Topical bioassay with pupae of revealed that B t k f o r m u l a t i o n s , n o v a l u r o n , flubendiamide, chlorantraniliprole, emamectin benzoate, indoxacarb, dimethoate and profenofos were rated as harmless (< 30% mortality). Dry film residue method using adults of revealed that Btk formulations, novaluron, flubendiamide and chlorantraniliprole were rated as harmless (< 30% mortality).Btk formulations, flubendiamide, chlorantraniliprole and novaluron were found harmless to both egg parasitoid, and larval parasitoid, These safer insecticides can be incorporated in IPM module to unify the safe and sustainable use of chemical and bio-control methods.
