Title: Analysis of Sampling Procedures for Corn Earworm and Fall Armyworm (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) in Peanuts
Abstract:Relative-density estimates from two insect-sampling devices (sweep-net and shake cloth) were compared with absolute-density estimates for three size classes of the corn earworm, Heliothis zea (Boddie)...Relative-density estimates from two insect-sampling devices (sweep-net and shake cloth) were compared with absolute-density estimates for three size classes of the corn earworm, Heliothis zea (Boddie) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae), and the fall armyworm, Spodaptera frugiperda (J. E. Smith) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae), in peanuts. Linear regression analysis indicated that medium and large larvae of corn earworm and all size classes of fall armyworm were consistently recovered by both devices (r 2 ≥ 0.80). Small corn earworm estimates were poor for both devices (r 2 ≤ 0.38).Read More
