Abstract

This study was carried out to know the oviposition preference site of chestnut brown chafer ( CBC ), Adoretus tenuimaculatus and its temporal activity and spatial distribution in green. Larval distribution was also investigated in golf courses for the control of CBC. CBC collected from Yongwon Golf Club in Chinhae, Tongdo Golf Club in Yangsan, Gyeongsan Province, Daegu Golf Club in Gyeongsan, Kyeongbuk Province, Dongrae Golf Club laid more eggs on broableaf of Zoysia matrella than Z. japonica, broadleaf+middleleaf of Z. matrella, Poa pratensis, and P. annua. The number of CBC egg was $19.7\pm$6.7 in Z. japonica,$ 1.7\pm$1.5 in P. pratensis, $1.3\pm$1.5 in sandy loam and $5.7\pm$2.9 in sand. Acitivity time of CBC in a day was the peak at 20:00 and continued to 24:00. CBCs adults were more collected from outside of golf courses whichhad many host plants than roadside courses. Density of white grubs was significantly different in fairway only. CBCs were more collected at tee and fairway than green. Density of white grubs was $54.6\pm$100 in broadleaf of Z. matellia and $37.7\pm$33.8 in P. pratensis at the back tee of the 7th hole in Dongrae Golf Club.
