Experiments were carried out to investigate the life cycle of the rice leaf beetle (RLB), (Oulema oryzae KUWAYAMA) ,yield losses by its damages, and control method in $1976{\sim}1983$ at the experimental field of Gangweon PORD. Peak occurrence of adult and larva rice beetle was late May and mid-June, respectively. Adult overwintered in the forest of mountain and move into the paddy field to lay eggs on the rice leaf from late seedling stage. A female adult laid eggs for 2 days, and egg, larval and pupal period was 9, 16, and 9 days, respectively. Leersia japonica MAKINO was damaged slightly by the beetle. The yield reduction by artifical defoliation ranged from 6 to 40% and yield reduction increased as leaf feeding delayed until mid-July. All insecicides show 100% of control value against RLB.

Effect of temperature on oviposition and developmental period of Oulema oryzae K. on riceplant were investigated. With the given set of temperatures of 15, 20, 23, 25, and 28"C, developmentalperiod from egg to adult emergence was shorten as temperature increased. Average number of eggs perfemale 0. oryzae increased as temperature increased from 15$^{\circ}$C to 23"C, then decreased at 25$^{\circ}$C and 28"C. Based on this result, developmental threshold temperatures for egg was estimated to be 6.4"C. Totaleffective temperatures above the thresolds required for hatching were estimated to be 75.8 degree-daysfor egg. It seemed that the optimum temperature for oviposition of Oulema oryzae on rice plant was 23"C.a oryzae on rice plant was 23"C.quot;C.

Silkworms have been found cross infected with other microsporidia of insects in mulberry trees, forest and fruit gardens. Even the unidentified microsporidian species were not seriously pathogenic to silkworms, the silkworm egg producers lose their profit because of the elimination of eggs laid from moths which are infected with any kind of microsporidian species. Recently, the microsporidian cross infection to silkworm is in tendency of increase and the authors have investigated the field insects to examine the microsporidia. The number of species of insects infected with microsporidia was 10 and they were Boettcherisca peregrina (Robineau-Dewvoidy), Apis melifera linnaeus, Artogenia rapae Linnaeus, Tipula aino Alexander, Altica cacrulescens (Baly), Anomela daimiana Harold, Eilema griseola (Jubner), Rbalbistylun speciosum Uller, Anisodactylus signatus illiger, Oulema oryzae (Kuwayama). From the Boettcherisca peregrina (Rogineau-Desvoidy), three different species of micrsporidia were isolated and the microsporidia isolated from Boettcherisca peregrina (Robineau-Desvoidy), Apis melifera Linnaeus, Artogenia rapae Linnaeus donot have infectivity to silkworm larvae, Bombyx mori L.

Surveys were conducted in 66 ginseng fields damaged by insect and other an~mal pests from 1984 to 1993. Holohichio rnoroso, Holotrichio dromphalio, Holotrichia titonis Malodera orientaliq Ectinus sericeus, Gyllotalpa ofricana, Teleog~iluse mmo, Ostrinio furnacoii* Agrotis tokionis, Marnestro brassicae, Hydrellia griseolo, unidentified stem maggo$, Pseudococcus comstocki (13 species of insects). Deroceras uarions (slug), Acusta despecta sieboldiona (snail), probably two species of rats. and pheasant species were ascertained to damage ginseng plants M them, Holotrich~a morosa, Holotrichia diomphalia, Gryliotaipo africanq Deroceras uarions, Acusto despech siebaldiano showed higher frequencies. Underground (root) damage occul~ed mainly in spring penod (MayJune) and fall period (September-Odober) in 2-year-old glnseng fields at slopes, and aboveground (leaf and stem) damage occurred mainly in spring period in 3 or more-year-old ginseng iields mulched with rice straws at plains. Three ginseng fields were abolished due to heavy underground damage.

Microsporidian spores were isolated from yellow-hind winged arctiid, Eilema griseola (Hubner), and cutworm, Agrotis tokionis Butler, and their morphological characteristics and their indectivity to silkworms were investigated. The shape of the microsporidian isolates was oval and the sige of the spore isolated from yellow-hind winged was measured in 2.6$\times$1, 5$\mu$ and that of the isolated from cutworm was measured in 3.7$\times$20.$\mu$. Both the isolated microsporidians showed the infectivity to silkworms, but the isolates did transovarian transmission in silkworms and the silkworm moth infected with the isolate from yellow-hind winged laid eggs irregularly.

This study was carried out to compare on the time of occurrence of 6 major rice insect pests [Lissorhoptrus oryzophilus Kusche, Oulema oryzae Kuwayama, Sogatella furcifera (Horvath), Nilaparvata lugens Stal., Cnaphalocrocis medinalis (Guenee), Mythimna separata Walker] in northern part of the Korean peninsula. Using growing degree days of the insects, we evaluated the number of occurrence generations and the time of occurrence. Over-wintering insects such as L. oryzophilus and O. oryzae showed different occurrence periods in northern regions. The occurrence period of the first generation adults was later in northeast regions than in Korean middle regions and more later both in northern alpines and in northern parts of east sea. In addition, the first adults of S. furcifera, N. lugens, C. medinalis, and M. separata occurred between June and early August. However, from late August to September, these insects showed the different occurrence periods in northern regions. Especially, the second adults of N. lugens were not occurred and the second to third generation adults of S. furcifera, C. medinalis, and M. separata showed similar occurrence properties. Based on these properties, the occurrence of major rice insect pests will be less in northeast regions, northern regions of east sea, northern inlands, and northern alpines of the Korean peninsula. However, comparing with their occurrences in northern regions of Gyenonggi and Gangwon provinces, the rice insect pests may show similar occurrence pattern in mid-korean mountains except for pyunggang and yangduk regions as well as in the southern and northern regions of Suyang-san.

This paper is to suggest the methods about the environmental risk assessment (ERA) based on non-target insect species for LM rice crop produced by biotechnology. We used some data by the picture dictionary of agricultural pests in Korea, some books for ERA or rice pest ecology, articles about rice ecology, and internet sites and many specialists gave us good advice for this ERA system. We found about 140 insect species using rice crop as their habitat and we discriminated herbivores into Sap feeder, Grain feeder, Defoliator, and Pollen feeder according to their food functional group. We also clarified the potential damage possibility of insect species from LM rice crop. Then, we ranked 10 non-target insect species (Baliothrips biformis, Laodelphax striatellus, Nilaparvata lugens, Mythimna separata, Cnaphalocrocis medinalis, Cletus schmidti Kiritshenko, Scotinophara lurida, Nilaparvata bakeri, Oxya chinensis, Agromyza oryzae) with giving some scores using Geographic distribution, Habitat specialization, Prevalence on crop, Abundance. We showed some environmental risk hypotheses about herbivore, predator, and parasitoid, and infered the impacts of non-target species on LM rice crop. Conclusively, we want to serve this methodology to build the biosafety system from biotechnology crops, and the methodology is to keep public health, sustain the biodiversity, and conserve the natural ecosystems.
