Seasonal Occurrence of Three Tortricinae Moths in Southern Korea

Abstract

Seasonal occurrences of three Tortricinae species were monitored at persimmon orchard in Changwon city (35°09'18.16"N 128°34'43.63"E), Gyeongnam, Korea, by using sex attractant traps in 2012 and 2013. The two years of monitoring revealed that Adoxophyes honmai and Homona magnanima occurred four times a year, and Neocalyptis angustilineata did three times. Peak occurrence of A. honmai was recorded in mid-May, from early to mid-July, from late July to early August, and from mid-to late September for the generation, respectively. H. magnanima population peaked during mid-to late May, mid-July, from late August to early September, and from late September to mid-October for the generation, respectively. N. angustilineata showed three clear peaks from late May to early June, in late July, and from early to mid-September for the first, second, and third generation, respectively.
