Migratory insect pest populations migrate from the southern China to Korea through jet streams. In Korea, 5 major migratory insect species are important, i.e. Nilaparvata lugens, Sogatella furcifera, Laodelphax striatellus, Cnaphalocrocis medinalis and Mythimma separate, which are damages to the major crops, rice. This study was conducted from late July 2016 to early September 2016 and from July 2017 to August 2017 in rice paddy of Jeolla-province. C. medinalis and M. separata collected using pheromone traps, while N. lugens, S. furcifera and L. striatellus collected using 3 methods (visual surveys, sweeping surveys, sticky traps). SADIE (Spatial Analysis by Distance IndicEs) among geostatistics was used to analyze migratory insect pests. SADIE was used to analyze spatial distribution and index of aggregation $I_a$, index of clustering $V_i$, $V_j$ were used to investigate the spatial distribution. Also, the clustering indices were mapped as red-blue plot. C. medinalis and M. separata showed different distribution based on SADIE spatial aggregation analysis and red-blue plot analysis. Initial spatial distributions of L. striatellus and other planthoppers were differed for sampling location and time.

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.

The hypertext-based polychotomous key in m (World Wide Web) was developed to improve the identification accuracy of planthoppers caught by the light trap in Korean paddy fields. The effects of it were tested by 12 students who are not familiar at the identification of insects. When they used the hypertext, it was improved that the ability of them to recognize Sogatella furcifera (Horvath) and Laodelphax striatellus (Fallen). Identification accuracy of the former was increased significantly from 56% to 83% and that of the latter was also increased significantly from 47% to 80%. However, many students still have difficulty in the recognition of Nilaparvata lugens (Stal).

This study was conducted to analyze arthropod community patterns in smallrice fields managed by different cultural methods [Conventional and Low Input Sustainable Agriculture(LISA)] in Suwon in 1995 and 1996. A half of nitrogen fertilizers and a quarter of pesticides were applied in the LISA field compared to in the conventional field. Total 15 orders and 43 families of arthropods were collected in two years. No differences were found in arthropod abundance and arthropod species composition between two differently practiced fields. The arthropod community was analyzed using guild categories. The arthropods were found in the order of 'pest(phytophag)>natural enemy>non-pest' in their densities. The pest species were mainly Homoptera and dominated by Delphacidae (Nilaparvata lugens Stal and Sogatella furcifera Horvath). They constituted > 80% of pest abundance. The spider was the most dominant group in the natural enemy and constituted > 90% of natural enemy abundance. Hunting spiders constituted > 60% of spider abundance and were dominated by Pirata subpiraticus Bos. et Str.(Lycosidae). Pachygnatha clerki Sundevall(Tetragnathidae), Gnathonarium dentatum Weider and Ummeliata angulituberis Oi(Erigonidae) were the dominant species in webbing spiders.

Studies were conducted to investigate the incidense of insect pests in transplanted and direct seeded paddy fields in southern region of Korea. Population dencities of the rice green leafhopper (RGLH: Nephotettix cincticeps Uhler) and rice leaffolder (RLF: Cnaphalocroch medinalh Guenee) were higher in machine transplanted than in direct seeded, but the brown planthopper (BPH: Nilaparvata lugens Stal) and smaller brown planthopper (SBPH: Laodelphax striatellus Fallen) were abundant in direct seeded. However, no significant difference was found between machine transplanted and direct seeded fields in the incidense of rice stem borer (RSB: Chilo suppressalis Walker), whiteback planthopper (WBPH: Sogatella furcifera Horvath), and rice stem magot (RSM: C'hlorops oryzae Matsumura). Occurrence of rice key pests were affected more by transplanting time than other cultural practices. Later transplanting induced higher populations of BPH, WBPH, SBPH, RGLH. However, RSB and RLF caused higher damage in earlier transplanted paddy field.

These studies were carried out to investigate the occurrence of rice insect pests related to different transplanting times and N-P-K-fertilizer levels of paddy field in Southern region of Korea. The population densities of brown planthopper (BPH: Nilaparvata lugens Stal), whitebacked planthopper (WBPH: Sogatella furcifera Horvath), small brown planthopper (SBPH: Laodelphax striatellus Fallen), green rice leafhopper (GRLH: Nephotettix cincticeps Uhler), rice stem maggot (RSM: Chlorops oryzae Matsumura), striped rice borer (SRB: Chilo suppressalis Walker), and rice leaffolder (RLF: Cnaphalocrocis medinalis Guenee) were affected more by transplanting time than the fertilizer levels. The later transplanting time induced the higher population densities of BPH, WBPH, SBPH, GRLH, RSM, whereas SRB and RLF were affected by earlier transplanting time in paddy field. The major pests except GRLH and SRB were increasingly induced by higher N-fertilizer level in the late transplanting.

This study was conducted to analyze arthropod community patterns in small rice fields associated with different planting methods (water seeding, drill seeding, and hansplanting) in Suwon and Icheon in 1994. Total 15 orders and 45 families of arthropods were collected. The arthropod community was analyzed using guild categories. The arthropods were found in the order of 'natural enemy>pest(phytophage)>non-pest' in their densities in all sites. The pest (phytophage) species were mainly Homoptera and dominated by Delphacidae (Nilaparvata lugens Stsl, Sogatella fircifera Horvath and Laodelphax striatellus Fallen) and Cicadelidae (Nephotettir cincticeps Uhler). They constituted >80% of pest abundance. Differences in pest abundance were not found among rice fields associated with different planting methods. Spiders were the most dominant group in the natural enemy and constituted >90% of natural enemy abundance. Hunting spiders constituted >SO% of spider abundance and were dominated by Pirata subpiraticus Bos. et Str. (Lycosidae). Pacliygnatha clerki Sundevall (Tetragnathidae) was a dominant species in webbing spiders. No differences were found in species richness and diversity in spider community among rice fields associated with different planting methods. The nonpest species were mainly Diptera and occurred abundantly in early growing season and decreased drastically as rice development proceeded. The non-pest abundance was higher in direct seeding sites than in transplanting site, and especially abundant in a drill seeding site.

Regional differences in economic importance of the four species of rice leafhoppers, viz., Laodelphax striatellus, Nephotettix cincticeps, Nilaparvata Iugens and Sogatella furcifera, were analyzed and discussed based on population surveys conducted in Suweon and in southern and south-western coastal areas. The economic importance of L. striatellus and N. cincticeps, which are found throughout the year in Korea, seems to be less in middle regions. This is believed due to effective natural control through severe winter climate, cultural practices in rice and barley growing, and natural enemies such as spiders. However, the economic importance of these two species is significantly greater in southern regions with a less severe winter climate, and where cultural practices in rice and barley favour synchronization between the life cycles of insects and the seasonal succession of host plants. with regard to N. lugens and S. furcifera, which cannot overwinter in Korea, initial populations are the result of long distance migration across the East China Sea. Weather elements related to their migration result in more abundant immigrants of these two species in southern than in middle regions. Thus, different policies are needed for the integrated control of rice leafhoppers in middle and southern Korea.

The mymarids egg parasite of rice planthopper, Anagrus nr. flaveolus, were investigated to know their parasitic activities after overwitering in the paddy banks and barley fields, their host preferences and seasonal variations in the pesticide sprayed and unsprayed paddy fields of Gyeongnam province O.R.D. at Jinju from 1977 to 1979. The parasitic activities of Anagrus nr. flaveolus after overwintering in the paddy banks were high early in April and tended to decrease remarkably since mid-April by moving to the barley fields. The parasitic rate of Anagrus nr. flavelous was $47.2\~88\%$ between middle and late in April, the peak of egg deposition period. Anagrus nr. flaveolus parasitized Laodelphax striatellus, Nilaparvata lugens, and Sogatella furcifera, but didn't attack the eggs of Nephotettix cincticeps in the paddy fields. High preference was observed with Laodelphax steriatellus. The parasitic activities of Anagrus nr. flaveolus in the pesticide sprayed paddy fields were high in early July and from late August to early September. The parasitic rate in the pesticide unsprayed fields were higher than those of sprayed fields during the pesticide spraying period, from July to August and parasitic activities were active from October to before coming winter.

The densities of plant-and leaf hoppers were examined by direct counting the rice plant of two varieties; Milyang 23 and Chucheongbyeo, in Chinju. The densities of the small brown planthopper(SBPH), Laodelphax striatellus, and Green rice leafhopper(GLH), Nephotettix cincticeps were higher on Chuchungbyeo than on Milyang 23 throughout the season, whereas those of white backed planthopper(WBPH), Sogatella furcifera, and Brown planthopper(BPH), Nilaparvata lugens were high on Milyang 23. Seasonal densities of planthoppers were varied with rice plant growth; on Chucheong field, GLH was the predominant species from June to August and BPH was in September, but in Milyang 23 field, WBPH was more abundent from July to August and BPH was increased from late August and was the highest on September.
