Abstract
The horse-chestnut leaf miner, Cameraria ohridella Deschka and Dimic (1986) , is a new pest of horse-chestnut in Central and Eastern Europe. To combat it, for example, by pheromones, experiments which require a differentiation of sexes are necessary. Here an easy method to distinguish the sexes by mo rphological characters of the pupae is described.
