Abstract:: A classical biological control project was undertaken against the filbert aphid, Myzocallis coryli (Goetze), in western Oregon. Hazelnut orchards in Spain, France, and Italy were searched for natural enemies of the aphid, and a parasitic wasp, Trioxys pallidus Haliday, was imported, quarantined, mass-reared, and released in Oregon orchards. The wasp...

Creator:: Katundu, Juma
Abstract:: Levels of resistance to six selected insecticides of eleven field populations of the filbert aphid Mvzocallis coryli (Goetze) were determined by using the leaf-dip residue technique. Test insecticides included compounds widely used in commercial filbert orchards, namely, carbaryl, diazinon, endosulfan, phosalone, fenvalerate and oxydemetonmethyl. Aphid samples were collected within a...

Abstract:: Seasonal synchrony between the filbert aphid, Myzocallis coryli (Goetze) and its newly introduced parasitoid Trioxys pallidus Haliday was examined in the field to evaluate the effectiveness of parasitoid based biological control in filbert orchards of Oregon. Fieldemergence observations showed that 50% eclosion of the aphid occurred 14 days before that...

Creator:: Saeed, Mohammad
Abstract:: A parasitic wasp, Trioxys pallidus Haliday (Hymenoptera: Aphidiidae) was imported from Europe and initially released against the filbert aphid Mvzocallis coryli (Goetze) in hazelnut (filbert) orchards of the Willamette Valley, Oregon beginning in 1984. In the present study, I investigated the establishment rates of this parasitoid. A total of 13...

Creator:: Messing, Russell H.
Abstract:: Commercial filbert orchards throughout the Willamette Valley were surveyed for natural enemies of the filbert aphid, Myzocallis coryli (Goetze). A large number of predaceous insects were found to prey upon M. coryli, particularly members of the families Coccinellidae, Miridae, Chrysopidae, Hemerobiidae, and Syrphidae. Also, a parasitic Hymenopteran (Mesidiopsis sp.) and...
