Determination of the natural enemies of Colorado potato beetle (<em>Leptinotarsa decemlineata</em> Say) and using of <em>Chrysoperla</em> sp. for the biological control of the pest.

Abstract

During the surveys carried out in order to determine the natural enemies of Colorado potato beetle in Ankara, Bolu, Niğde and Nevşehir provinces in 1994 and 1995, Anthocoris  sibiricus Rt., Nabis punctatus  C., Zicrona caerulae (L.), Coccinula quatuordecimpustulata (L.), Adonia variegata (Goeze.), Coccinella  septempunctata (L.), Semiadalia undecimnotata Schneider., Propylaea quatuordecimpustulata (L.) and Chrysoperla sp. were identified as egg/larvae predators. In this study, the predatory effects of Chrysoperla sp. on the eggs of the beetle were also investigated in the laboratory. None of the Chrysoperla larvae reached to adults stage when they were fed on the Colorado potato beetle eggs during the first larval stage. 60 % of the Chrysoperla larvae reached to adults stage when they were reared on aphid (Hyalopterus pruni G.) during the first larval stage and on Colorado potato beetle eggs during the second and the third stages. When the Chrysoperla larvae were introduced to both aphid and beetle eggs, larvae did not prefer the beetle eggs but aphids. Depending on these results it was concluded that Chrysoperla was not a good candidate for inundative or augmentative release for the biological control of Colorado potato beetle.
