Those containing neonicotinoid components such as Cruiser OSR (thiamethoxam) or Modesto (clothianidin) are likely to give 6-8 weeks of protection from drill-ing against sawfly larvae. Caterpillars have five or fewer pairs of false legs that are armed with tiny hooks. Infestations on a few small trees can be controlled by picking off and destroying the larvae when they are first noticed. at seedling stage. The population range of mustard sawfly was 0.3±0.2-7.3±0.6 larvae/plant in season (Table 1). Mustard sawfly, A. lugens proxima Klug (Hymenoptera: Tenthredinidae) has become a serious pest of mustard and radish in several regions of India, including the north- eas t India [6, 7] . Sawflies are one of the few insects in the wasp family that feed on plants. Pant University of Agriculture and Technology, Pantnagar A number of insecticides that had been found effective against the sawfly in different parts of India were tested in field trials in June 1969-September 1970 on radish at a farm in Kolhapur, Uttar Pradesh; details of these treatments and their results in the different seasons in which they were applied are given. The larvae may appear individually, but often form clusters of dozens of chewing defoliators. declined on rapeseed-mustard (Mathur et al, 1987).

Bristly roseslug (Cladius difformis). Chemical Control Insecticide control has proven to be an ineffective option because of the extended period that the adults are present and control is needed. In another study (Vengris et al., 1953), corn was compared with six annual broad-leaved weeds and one annual grass (Table 6.4). Chemical control: • Dimethoate 30% EC@264 ml in 200-400 l of water/acre. Effective control efforts would require close monitoring to determine the timing of sawfly presence and repeated applications for most of the period adults are active. Many insect and mite pests attack wheat in Colorado, affecting the economic livelihood of growers. Ann. In: Kanchaveli L.A., ed.
