Sex pheromone composition was analyzed for Dichocrocis punctiferalis, which attacksapple, peach, chestnut fruits, etc., and its behavioral and field trapping studies were conducted to developa monitoring system with its sex pheromone. Virgin females showed maximum mating behavior andhairpencil extrusion behavior between 4-5 hrs after lights-off under 16L18D photoperiod and 26rf 1 "C.During this period, two sex pheromone components, ElO-hexadecenal and ZlO-hexadecenal, weredetected by GC analysis in the hexane extract of abdominal tips of virgin females. The best attraction ofmales to various synthetic sex pheromone blends was obtained at the 70 : 30 ratio of ElO-hexadecenal andZ10-hexadecenal for hair pencil extrusion and at the 80 : 20 ratio for flying upwind response. The highestattractiveness in fields was obtained between 70 : 30 and 80 : 20 from several tests in apple, peach andchestnut orchards.and chestnut orchards.

The damage by fruit-piercing moths in orchards, primarily on grapes cultivated on reclaimed hillsides in Koksung, Cholla Namdo, was surveyed during July to October, 1974. Moths collected at night, mostly with the aid of flash light, were then classified. Results are summairzed as follows; 1. In addition to the 14 species of fruit-piercing moths reported in Korea, 11 new species were collected lot the first time ia Korea. These include. Speiredonia retorta Clerck, Cocytodes coerulea Guenee, Metopta rectifasciata Menetries, Ophideres fullonica Linnaeus, Serrodes campana Guenee, Mythimna turca Linnaeus, Amphipyra livida Schiffermuller et Denis, Paralleia maturata Walker, Ophiusa tirhaca Cramer, Anomis mesogona Walker and Thyas dotata Fabricius. 2. The maximum emergence of moths in Koksung Orchard was from the 10th to the end of September. Only a few moths were observed befroe the begining of August or after October 10. 3. The number of moths flying to grape vines increased as the time advanced from sunset to midnight. Populations gradually decreased thereafter until 5:30 a. m., when only occasional moths were observed. 4. Average damage to grape fruits by these insects was virtually nil until August 10; with subsequent infestation rates of $1.0\%$ on August 15, $17.6\%$ on September 26, and $20.3%$ on October 4, respectively. 5. Fruits of less than 10 percent sugar content and higher than 6.2 acid value were free from damage by these moths, and those of higher sugar content and lower acid value to be more heavily attacked.

Overwintering ecology of the peach pyralid moth, Dichocrosis punctiferalis Guenee (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae) was studied in laboratory and in a chestnut orchard in 2001/2002 winter and 2003 spring. All twenty-four female and fourteen male moths were fruit-feeding type which were emerged from the larvae collected at the same chestnut orchard in 2003 winter. Periodical thermal treatment of overwintering larvae at $25^{\circ}C$ revealed that diapause termination of the larval population started from the end of January and was completed until April 20 in southern region of Korea. Pupation of diapause-terminated larvae started from early May and reached to $100\%$ at June 3 in chestnut orchard. Days to pupation of female larvae after diapause termination were 12.5, 8.9, and 7.5 at $20^{\circ}C,\;25^{\circ}C$, and $30^{\circ}C$, respectively. Those of male larvae were similar to those of females. Pupal periods of female were 14.7, 11.8, and 9.0 days at the three temperatures. Moths of the overwintered generation emerged from May 20 to June 28, and reached to $50\%$ emergence on June 8 to 9 under emergence cage. Attraction of the male moths of overwintered generation to sex pheromone traps showed that the date of $50\%$ catches to the traps were June 17, when data from 3 southern regions of Korea were pooled.

A distribution status of host plants for fruit-piercing moths was surveyed in Kocksung fruit growing area of Chonnam province during June to October, 1975. The results were summarized as follows; Main host plants of fruit·piercing larvae Smilax china L., Allizzia zulibrissim Dura, Cocculus trilobus Dc., Thalictrum aquilegifolium L., and Pterocarya rhoifolia Sieb & Zucc. Pterocarya rhoifolia Sieb & Zucc. were found to be distributed at mountain regions over 500m above sea level, while the other host plants were found to be distributed with in loom to 300m above sea level The moths was found from June 25th to Oct. 4th. Maximum emergence of the moths on plum an8 peach were about July 18th and on the grapes tree about August 31th. The moths collected from June 25th to Oct.4th were 17 spcies. Dermaleipa zuno Dalman $(35.7\%)$, Oraesia emaginata Fabriciul$(17.7\%)$, Oraesia excavata Butler $(12.9\%)$, Adrias tyramus amurensis Staduinger$(9.1\%)$, were collected much more than any other species; They accounted for approximately$70\%$ of total moths collected. In regards to the sugar contents of peach and plum, it was observed that the more the sugar concentrated, the more the fruits damaged. but the acid value of fruits had not shown any significant relationship with their attractants.

This survey was conducted to illustrate insect pests and their natural enemies in soybean fields in Honam area. A total of 23 pest species in 13 families and 13 species of natural enemy were observed during 2002 to 2003. Delia platura, Medythia nigrobilineata, Spodoptera exigua and Aphis glycines occurred relatively with high population densities during the early growth stage of soybean. Dolycoris baccarum, Riptortus clavatus, Nezara antennata, Piezodorus hybneri and Halyomorpha halys began to occur between mid July to early August and lasted until the harvest time. Lepidopteran insect pests, Leguminivora glycinivorella, Pleuroptya ruralis, Scopula missaria, Macdunnoughia purissima and Spodoptera litura occurred significantly in late August in soybean field. Natural enemies of soybean insect pests observed in this survey were seven parasitoids, five predators, and an entomopahogenic fungus. Two egg parasitoid species for R. clavatus, two parasitoid species for P. ruralis, and five natural enemy species (including parasite, predator and entomopathogenic fungi) for either S. litura or A. glycines were identified, respectively. Among them two egg parasitoid species, Gryon japonicum and Ooenyrtus nezarae for R. clavatus, for and one parasitoid species for P. ruralis, that belong to Bethylidae, were new to Korea.

In this study, Telenomus remus Nixon (Hymenoptera: Scelionidae) was first reported as a natural enemy of the fall armyworm Spodoptera frugiperda (J.E. Smith) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) egg collected from corn fields in Korea, and its biological characteristics was studied. Based on morphological and molecular analysis, the parasitoid emerged from S. frugiperda eggs was identified as T. remus. We found that T. remus can attack the eggs of S. frugiperda, Spodoptera litra and Spodoptera exigua under a laboratory condition. The longevity of T. remus female adult was longer than that of male adult. The egg-to-adult period of T. remus was not affected by the host age and sex. T. remus female adult laid at least 1-3 eggs a day to a maximum of 37 or more eggs, and the most oviposited on the 3^rd to 4^th day after emergence. The host preference for oviposition of T. remus adult was high in the order of S. litura>S. exigua>S. frugiperda. T. remus preferred to parasitize 1- and 2-day-old host egg rather than 3-day-old host egg. When compared to the sex ratio of T. remus progeny, the rate of female progeny was higher at the initiation time of oviposition, while the proportion of male progeny increased significantly with female adult age, especially after 8-day-old adult. This information may be useful for improving T. remus mass rearing system and developing a biological control program to control S. frugiperda.
