  • Contribution to the study of the biology and ecology of the leaf-miner Liriomyza trifolii and its control by neem

  • The serpentine leaf-miner Liriomyza trifolii is a new proliferous and polyphagous agricultural pest in Mauritius, attacking crops, ornamentals and weeds. Urgent chemical control measures had to be developed in order to save total crop loss, in particular potato, tomato, haricot beans, crucifers and onions. This insect is resistant to most insecticides. In view of formulating an integrated management programme, this paper reports on some aspects of practical importance concerning the biology and ecology of the leaf-miner, the incidence of damage, and the possibility of its control by natural plant products such as extracts of neem (Azadirachta indica). Steam distillates of neem leaves seriously affect larvae and pupae upon treatment by contact at as low a dose as 0.3% of the extract. Field treatments of onion plantations with aqueous neem extracts (0.5%) gave good protection to the crop. The current control measures are briefly considered.
