Abstract
In laboratory assays, two Bacillus thuringiensis var. kurstaki prepara tions, HD-263a WP and HD-263c WP, were highly effective against larvae of the honeydew moth, Cryptoblabes gnidiella Milliere (Lepidoptera: P yralidae), especially against the first and second instars. Both prepa rations were more effective than Dipel(R) Wp at Most concentrations te sted. Two viral preparations, AcMNPV and Amorbia cuneana NPV, were ine ffective.
