Mangrove trees are not immune to herbivory. They are affected mainly by folivores, which may influence litter production and nutrient cycling within the system (Choudhury 1988). The amount of leaf material lost to herbivory is also related to the characteristics of the trees and local environmental conditions (Feller 1995), which result in widely varying rates of leaf consumption (Anderson & Lee 1995). According to Cannicci et al . (2008), the true ecological role played by insect herbivores is not simply ...

Relata-se a ocorrência de Hyblaea puera (Cramer, 1777) em povoamentos homogêneos de teca, Tectona grandis L.f., no Brasil. Infestações dessa praga foram observadas em reflorestamentos localizados nos municípios de Cáceres e Rosário Oeste, Estado de Mato Grosso. Cita-se, também, a ocorrência deste lepidóptero em outras localidades brasileiras: Chapada dos Guimarães (MT), Nobres (MT), Jataí (GO), Dourados (MS) e Rio de Janeiro (RJ).

In the year 1993, a 100 tree plot in a 17 year old teak plantation at Nilambur in Kerala was experimentally protected from Hyblaea puera Cramer, a serious defoliator of teak plantations, using a naturally occurring baculovirus ( Hp NPV) reported earlier from this pecies. During the year, there were four major peaks of defoliator infestation from March to June. One-time foliar application of a crude preparation of Hp NPV at the rate of 1x10 5 POB/ml of the spray fluid, at the earliest sign of each ...

Defoliator pests often cause severe damage to commercially valuable timber trees, such as teak, grown in plantations, affecting the quality and quantity of the wood produced. Twenty-five isolates of an entomopathogenic fungus, Metarhizium anisopliae (Metsch.), derived from different forest habitats were tested for their efficacy against the Teak Defoliator, Hyblaea puera Cram. The median lethal concentration (LC50) for the isolates ranged from 0.65 to 947.41 × 105 conidia mL−1. Four isolates, viz. MIS2, ...

Abstract: In Bangladesh one to two population peaks of teak defoliator, Hyblaea puera Cram. occurred between late April and July, followed in some years by another flatter peak in August and September. The temporal and spatial distribution of infestation suggested a short‐range migration of moth. When general flushing of teak occurs in March–April the population starts building up generation by generation. During early build up phase the infestations are distributed in discrete patches. When a critical ...

We report the first known infestation of mangroves by the invasive moth Hyblaea puera in Paraná, Southern Brazil. The infestation caused massive defoliation of Avicennia schaueriana trees, affecting approximately 20,000 hectares of mangroves. We discuss the implications for conservation and management, focusing on protected areas, the ecology of mangroves, and local livelihoods.

Hyblaea puera, commonly known as the teak defoliator, is a serious pest in teak plantations. Despite the availability of control measures, this pest causes losses in yield and quality of timber through voracious feeding. RNA interference (RNAi) is a promising strategy for the control of this pest. Chitin metabolism, which is vital for the growth and development of arthropods, is a potential target for developing RNAi-based insecticides.To assess the effects of chitin metabolism inhibition, H. puera ...

20 clones of teak, Tectona grandis belong to Kerala, Tamil Nadu and Andhra Pradesh were evaluated for their natural variation in susceptibility to teak defoliator, Hybiaea puera Cram (Lepidoptera: Hyblaeldae). Growth increment of the clones was also observed for a period of 17 months. TNT 6 was found to be the most resistant clone as the leaf area consumed by the larvae of H. Puera was 1.51 cm 2 . Whereas KLS 3 was the most susceptible (leaf area fed 17.78 cm 2 ). Performance of clone KLK 2 was the best ...
