M. Subchev et al., MONITORING THE CURRANT BORER, SYNANTHEDON-TIPULIFORMIS CL (LEPIDOPTERA, SESIIDAE) BY PHEROMONE TRAPS IN BULGARIA, Acta phytopathologica et entomologica Hungarica, 28(2-4), 1993, pp. 435-440
Pheromone traps baited with a 100:3 mixture of (E,Z)-2,13-octadecadien
-1-ol acetate and (E,Z)-3,13-octadecadien-1-ol acetate were used for m
onitoring the flight of the currant borer, Synanthedon tipuliformis Cl
. (Lepidoptera: Sesiidae) in two black currant fields in Bulgaria in 1
989 and 1990. It was shown that these traps are appropriate for season
-long monitoring of the pest. In the years investigated the flight of
the currant borer started at the beginning of May and lasted 78-91 day
