Abstract

Spodoptera latifascia (Walker) can damage up to 31% of tomato plants under greenhouse conditions in Oaxaca, Mexico. The larvae prefer to feed on the leaves, although the fruits are also damaged. Applications of cypermethrin 200 at 300 ml/ha control the larvae. This is the first report of S. latifascia in Oaxaca.

Spodoptera latifascia (Walker) puede dañar hasta 31 % de plantas en tomate bajo condiciones de invernadero en Oaxaca, México. La larva prefiere alimentarse de hojas, aunque los frutos también son dañados. Las aplicaciones de cipermetrina 200 a 300ml/ha sirven para el control de las larvas. Este es el primer reporte de S. latifascia en Oaxaca.
