Abstract

Padmanabha Aiyar (1942) noted three major caterpillar pests namely Bombetelia delatrix Quen, Argypoploce mormopa Meyrick and Thalassodes flavifusata Wlk., doing extensive damage to Eugenia in Travancore. "Ananthanarayanan and Venugopal (1954) recorded observations on five important pests on this crop including this geometrid for the first time in South India. Thalassodes flavifusta, W. is, beautiful geometriad moth and has a wider distri- bution in India, Sikkim, Ceylon, Java and Borneo. The following is a brief account on its bionomics and control of this interesting insect.
